FAQs
What is DriFIT technology?
DriFIT is Nike's innovative fabric technology designed to wick sweat away from the body and help keep you dry, comfortable, and focused during physical activity.
Is this top suitable for all sports?
Yes, the Nike DriFIT Academy 25 Drill Top is designed for a wide range of athletic activities, including football, running, gym workouts, and general training, due to its performance-oriented features.
How do I know if the slim fit is right for me?
The slim fit is designed to be close to the body, reducing distractions and improving aerodynamics. If you prefer a looser feel or plan to wear multiple layers underneath, a regular fit might be more suitable.
Can I wear this in cold weather?
This drill top offers some warmth and is ideal for cool weather or as a layer. For very cold conditions, it's recommended to wear it as part of a layering system with insulated outerwear.
What material is the drill top made of?
The drill top is made from 100% polyester, providing a smooth, durable, and comfortable feel.
How do I care for the Nike Swoosh logo?
To preserve the logo, avoid ironing directly on it. Washing the garment inside out on a low heat setting is also recommended.
Are there other colors available?
This guide focuses on the Lt Smoke Grey/Black/White/Metallic Gold variant. Availability of other colors may vary by retailer and season.
Troubleshooting
Top feels damp or heavy after a workout
Ensure you are washing the garment with a mild detergent and no fabric softener. Tumble dry on low or hang dry; avoid high heat. Make sure the garment is fully dry before storing.
Thumb loops feel tight or uncomfortable
The thumb loops are designed for a snug fit. Try stretching them gently with your fingers. If the issue persists, consider if the slim fit of the garment is the appropriate choice for your preferred comfort level.
Color fading after washing
Wash inside out in cold water and tumble dry on low heat. Avoid direct sunlight when drying to preserve color vibrancy.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Gently try to move the zipper up and down. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper. If it remains stiff, you can apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) to the zipper teeth.

Care Instructions: To maintain the performance and longevity of your drill top, please follow these care instructions:
