The Champion New Zealand Breakers 26/27 Shooting Shirt is a lightweight basketball warm-up top designed for training, pre-game preparation and supporters’ wear. Its 190GSM fabric combines moisture-wicking, quick-drying and breathable performance to help players stay comfortable while getting ready to take the court.
Moisture-wicking technology draws perspiration away from the body, while the quick-drying construction helps prevent the shirt from remaining damp during warm-ups or training. Increased airflow supports breathability as your body temperature rises.
Champion also states that the fabric helps prevent odours, which is useful for repeated basketball activity. The 190GSM construction provides a lighter alternative to the 220GSM Breakers jerseys and shorts, making it well suited to warm-ups, layering and active wear.
A Champion branded woven jock tag completes the authentic basketball styling.
