Shoes
Nike Dunk Low Men's Shoes
Skaters swear by these versatile sneakers with their durable synthetic leather uppers, lightweight foam midsoles and flat, grippy rubber outsoles.

Nike Zoom Vomero 5 Men's Shoes
Comfortable and durable, these sneakers were made for teens on the move. Featuring synthetic leather uppers, plush foam cushioning and rubber outsoles, they're especially ideal for runners. Mesh panels add breathability, while plastic caging on the sides helps with support.
Air Jordan 1 Low OG 'Wolf Grey' Shoes
Lightweight and sleek, these low-top basketball shoes are classic in style. Featuring leather and a grey, white and black colour scheme, they can jive with jeans, joggers or khakis. Plus, they deliver on the comfort front, thanks to foam midsoles and rubber traction outsoles.
Nike Calm and Nike Victori One Slides

Tops
Nike Swoosh American Football T-Shirt
You can't go wrong with classics, like this black cotton-polyester tee featuring the Nike Swoosh logo. If your teen doesn't play American football, opt for another top in the same line highlighting a different sport (like volleyball, lacrosse, wrestling, gymnastics, football, tennis, baseball or golf).

Shorts and trousers

Nike Men's Tearaway Basketball Trousers
In a flash, your teen can transform the look of these roomy bottoms by adjusting the press studs on the legs. Other noteworthy features include an elastic waistband with a drawcord and plenty of pockets for stashing essentials. As a bonus, the water-repellent finish helps to keep him dry.
Nike Sportswear Club Fleece Men's Joggers
These soft fleece trousers feature an elastic waistband with a quick-tie drawcord for a comfortable fit. Side pockets let your teen stash their phone and keys, while ribbed cuffs will help them show off their sneakers.
Accessories
Nike Hayward Backpack (26L)
Help gear your teen up for school with this black and white bag roomy enough to fit most 15 inch (38cm approx.) laptops. Thanks to its side and inside pockets and webbing in the front, they'll also be able to tote water bottles, a jacket and more.
