Badger Men's Navy/ Graphite B-Core Short Sleeve Quarter-Zip

The Badger B-Core Short Sleeve Quarter-Zip in Navy/Graphite is one of the most widely applicable color combinations in the style family. It pairs one of the most common team colors in North American athletics with a sharp Graphite contrast that reads well in professional, educational, and recreational settings. The 3.5 oz. per square yard, 100% polyester fabric is built with moisture-management technology to efficiently pull perspiration away from the skin during training, competition, and warm-up activity.

The antimicrobial treatment embedded in the fabric helps manage bacterial growth that causes odor during extended athletic use, making this top a smart choice for athletes who train frequently and cannot launder gear after each session. The 8-inch locking zipper at the collar can be set to any ventilation level and holds that position through dynamic movement without sliding down.

The contrast Graphite zipper tape and inner collar trim provide a clean two-tone visual against the deep Navy body that improves the appearance beyond standard athletic wear. Badger's sport shoulder construction keeps seams positioned outside of high-movement zones, allowing overhead reach, throwing mechanics, and lateral arm movements to occur without restriction from the garment.

The self-fabric collar maintains a structured fit and appearance through many wash cycles, which matters for programs presenting athletes in matching apparel throughout a competitive season. The double-needle hemmed bottom adds lasting durability at the base of the garment.

The Badger heat-seal logo on the left sleeve is a low-profile brand mark that leaves the chest and back surfaces clear for custom team decoration. Production in a Fair Labor Association-accredited facility qualifies this garment under the Socially Conscious Manufacturing standard.
