A bucket hat combines an old-school look with comfort and function. Pick from a variety of styles, from fleece, corduroy and classic canvas. And with varying brim lengths, Nike bucket hats offer 360-degree protection from the sun.

Choose a hat for hot days with Nike Dri-FIT Technology to wick away moisture and help keep the head dry. Or, if wind is a concern, opt for a hat with an adjustable under-the-chin strap to keep it secure.

Performance wear with moisture-wicking materials is a must-have for teen boys who are active. Nike Dri-FIT shirts help keep moisture at bay while maintaining softness and comfort.

Nike T-shirts come in a large variety of colours and graphics to fit a range of tastes, as well as safety details such as reflective-design strips for better visibility outdoors.

Complement your teen's skate obsession with a pair of Nike SB shoes, made with utmost functionality, style and comfort for daily wear.

Find shoes with leather uppers for durability, as well as flexible rubber soles to grip the board and provide traction while skating. There are athlete-inspired slip-ons, as well as high-top lace-ups in iconic Nike models, such as Blazers.

Let your teenager cosy up a Nike ACG Therma-FIT hoodie, which can be worn as a layer or on its own. Earthy prints play off patterns found in nature, while insulating materials trap body heat so your teen stays toasty.

There are also lightweight designs with Dri-FIT Technology to wick sweat and keep your teen cool and dry during workouts and warm days.

Give your teen the gift of ultra-cushioned support with a pair of Nike Basketball shoes. High tops provide ankle support, while a low-profile design allows for more flexibility in movement.

Nike Basketball shoes have an optimal mix of bounce and lightweight feel to help your teen make his mark on the court.
