Nike Kids' Dri-FIT Academy Pro Drill Football Top Royal Blue/Navy Size S

Young footballers training hard on the pitch need a top that keeps up with their energy. This Nike Academy Pro Drill top for kids is built for exactly that—lightweight, breathable, and made to move. The royal blue and navy colourway looks sharp, while Dri-FIT technology wicks sweat away so they stay dry and focused. Mesh panels add extra ventilation where it counts, and the standard fit gives them room to play without restriction. Made with at least 75% recycled polyester fibres, it’s a smart choice for both performance and the planet.
