To keep your Nike Dri-FIT Academy 23 Drill Top performing like new, follow these care guidelines to maintain its fit, feel, and sweat-wicking power—on and off the pitch:
Machine Wash Cold
Turn the top inside out and wash in cold water with like colors to protect the Dri-FIT fabric and maintain its color and structure.
Use Mild Detergent Only
Avoid bleach and strong detergents. A gentle wash protects the performance material and ensures breathability stays intact.
Do Not Use Fabric Softener
Fabric softeners can interfere with the moisture-wicking properties of Dri-FIT. Skip it to keep the fabric breathable and lightweight.
Tumble Dry Low or Air Dry
Air drying is best to preserve the elasticity and fit. If needed, tumble dry on low heat. Avoid high heat to prevent damage to the mesh and thumb strap areas.
Do Not Iron or Dry Clean
Do not iron over the Swoosh logo or mesh inserts. Avoid dry cleaning altogether to keep the garment’s integrity and performance.
