Nike Academy 2 Jersey | Youth Dri-FIT

Nike Academy 2 Jersey | Youth Dri-FIT

The Nike Academy 2 Youth Jersey is a lightweight football top made for junior players. It suits club training, school sport, academy programs and match day, and it is a strong base for junior team kits.

Nike Dri-FIT fabric moves sweat away from the skin so it can evaporate quickly, helping young players stay dry and comfortable from warm-up to the final whistle. The polyester fabric is light and breathable, with raglan sleeves that give easy movement through the shoulders.

Available in Black with patterned grey sleeves, or clean White with a black Swoosh. The plain back panel leaves room for player names and numbers.

To keep your Nike Dri-Fit Academy Jersey performing at its best and looking sharp, follow these care tips to maintain its shape, color, and moisture-wicking performance:

Machine Wash Cold
Turn the jersey inside out and wash with like colors in cold water to help preserve its Dri-FIT fabric and sleek black finish.

Use Mild Detergent
Avoid bleach or harsh cleaners. A gentle detergent helps maintain the fabric’s moisture-wicking properties and prevents damage to the material.

Skip the Fabric Softener
Fabric softeners can clog the breathable mesh and reduce sweat-wicking performance. Leave them out to keep airflow optimized.

Tumble Dry Low or Hang Dry
For best results, tumble dry on low or hang it to air dry. High heat can break down the polyester fibers over time.

Do Not Iron or Dry Clean
Avoid ironing or dry cleaning the jersey. If needed, lightly steam or iron inside out on a low setting—avoiding any logos or printed areas.
