Nike Dri-FIT Academy 25 Drill Top Youth Black XS

Most training tops treat young footballers as an afterthought, but the Nike Dri-FIT Academy 25 Drill Top is built specifically for the demands of youth football. Its football-specific cut and advanced sweat-wicking technology set it apart from ordinary training gear. The quarter-zip design with stand-up collar offers adjustable coverage, while the lightweight 100% polyester knit keeps players dry and focused from first whistle to final sprint.

Highlights

• Nike Dri-FIT technology pulls moisture away from the skin for rapid evaporation, helping young athletes stay cool and dry.
• Quarter-zip closure with a stand-up collar offers adjustable ventilation and extra neck coverage when the wind picks up.
• Made from 100% polyester for durability, quick drying, and easy care—machine wash cold, tumble dry low.
• Standard fit provides a relaxed, comfortable feel without restricting movement during training or matches.
• Embroidered Nike Swoosh logo on the chest signals authentic sport style.

In daily use

On the pitch or in the gym, this top works as a lightweight outer layer or a mid-layer under a jacket. The long sleeves and breathable fabric keep muscles warm without overheating, while the Dri-FIT finish prevents that heavy, clingy feeling after a hard session. The quarter-zip lets coaches and players quickly adjust airflow between drills, and the stand-up collar shields the neck from chilly gusts. Because it is all-season, it transitions smoothly from early morning autumn practices to spring evening matches.
