FAQs
Is this shirt suitable for all types of sports?
Yes, the Nike Academy Top is designed for general athletic use, making it suitable for soccer, running, tennis, or gym class.
Does the Dri-FIT fabric shrink in the dryer?
Polyester is generally resistant to shrinking, but it is always recommended to tumble dry on low heat to ensure the fabric maintains its shape over time.
Can I use fabric softener with this top?
It is not recommended to use fabric softener on performance gear, as it can leave a residue that interferes with the moisture-wicking capabilities of the fabric.
What does the regular fit mean for sizing?
A regular fit means the shirt is not overly tight or baggy, providing a standard, comfortable range of motion for most children.
Is the material thin?
The top is designed to be lightweight to facilitate cooling and breathability during sports, but it is made of durable, high-quality polyester knit.
Troubleshooting
Shirt retains odor after washing
Use a sports-specific laundry detergent or add half a cup of white vinegar to the rinse cycle to neutralize odor-causing bacteria.
Snagging in the mesh fabric
Avoid washing with items that have zippers or velcro. If a small snag occurs, gently pull the surrounding fabric to smooth it out.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
As a ready-to-wear sports garment, no complex setup is required. To maintain the effectiveness of the Dri-FIT technology and the integrity of the mesh panels, follow these care instructions: wash in cold water with similar colors. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can coat the moisture-wicking fibers and reduce their effectiveness. Tumble dry on a low setting or hang-dry to preserve the shape and performance of the synthetic polyester knit. Avoid ironing the mesh sections directly.
