Nike Elite

Build on Your Own Foundation

“Elite” means being where all the other people wish they could be. If you’re elite, you’re among the best. That’s where the little things add up: hundredths of a second, and fractions of an inch. It also means everyone is paying attention to how you do it. How you gear up says a lot about you, so do it right with the Nike Elite collection.

Once you’ve chosen the performance footwear you’ll need to make your mark, build on that foundation with Nike Elite crew socks. Their multidirectional weave blends support with natural flexibility that avoids bunching. Zonal cushioning absorbs impact at key points. An integrated arch band adds support, while ribbed traction under the forefoot contributes to the sure-grip you need.

Dri-FIT helps keep your feet feeling dry and comfortable while you focus on your game. 

Foot Comfort In Style

A wide array of colors — allover dyes or white with hits of color — lets you mix and match as needed, whether you’re going it alone or need team colors. Keep building with Nike Elite Stripe shorts and Elite Block shorts. The Stripe shorts are designed to let you play fast and light on any court. They’re made of 100% polyester as part of Dri-FIT construction that wicks away moisture to keep you feeling dry and light. A striped waistband and leg cuffs set off hits of color, as does the external drawcord at the front of the waistband.

Elite Block shorts also are built for lightweight performance and moisture-wicking Dri-FIT, but they feature wide, angled stripes that lend a look of quickness. An “Elite” wordmark printed on one leg leaves no doubt about your status. Both styles feature hand pockets for quick stash of your essentials.

And kids’ reversible shorts give you double-sided mesh construction that can flip around to fit whichever team colors you need to rock. However you choose to complete your Elite look, you can take it all with you in a Nike Hoops Elite Pro backpack. Styling matches the Elite Stripe shorts and the Elite Block shorts, respectively. One features the signature dotted stripe that is instantly recognizable as Nike Elite. The other features a colors stripe containing a subtle “Elite” print.
