All mums know what it’s like when the little one grows up and starts to form his or her own interests. Even better if his interests are sports, such as basketball, because that way he is engaged in a useful activity that allows his body to develop in a healthy way.
If he keeps talking about Luka Dončić and dreams of being an NBA player himself one day, the right thing to do is to motivate him with quality NBA apparel that will make him want to practice basketball even more and keep him motivated to work out.
How to choose the right NBA apparel for boys under 12?
One of the best things about choosing NBA apparel for a boy is that you don’t have to invest in hefty gear. Apart from a basketball, the other basketball equipment you need to play is basic and relatively affordable. The main goal is to have the right equipment for increased comfort and improved performance.
So, which clothes to choose for your young basketball enthusiast? You’ll need a basketball jersey, basketball shorts, kids’ sports jumpers or hoodie and definitely some good quality basketball shoes.
NBA jerseys for kids
NBA Basketball jerseys have evolved over the years as the fabrics have gradually become lighter and lighter. Nowadays, ultra-lightweight fabrics are available that are durable and allow the players’ skin to ‘breathe’, providing ventilation to keep players cool, thus preventing the body from overheating. A good jersey should “wick away” moisture and prevent players from getting too sweaty and uncomfortable.
At the same time, the jersey should not be so absorbent that it traps sweat, which would cause the jersey to be weighed down and add unnecessary weight.
As proud citizens of our star Luka Dončić, a basketball jersey with his name on it would be the first choice for your son. That way, he and his friends will have fun on the court pretending to be parts of the NBA! Let your little basketball player feel invincible in this jersey, follow his dreams and train with top motivation!
Luka can be a great inspiration for kids playing basketball, as he has already shown that he is a generational talent at the age of 8, after his first few training sessions with Olimpija. So at the age of 13, he signed a five-year contract with Real Madrid and continued to showcase his skills there. Did you know that he even became the youngest player in Real Madrid’s professional history?
Maybe you can give him the jersey of one of the NBA’s more iconic legends – Michael Jordan, who is considered by most basketball fans to be the greatest basketball player of all time. He is also the reason basketball has grown to become one of the most popular sports in the world. Wearing this basketball jersey, you can always make your child feel very connected to the beginnings of basketball.
Kids basketball shorts
Basketball shorts are usually made of the same fabric as T-shirts, but it is important that the bottom part is neither too tight nor too loose. Basketball shorts usually have an inner layer to better absorb sweat and prevent chafing. The rubber waistband must not be too tight, otherwise it will cause discomfort from constant rubbing due to the movements of the body during game play.
Basketball shorts should be long enough to reach the knees. Length varies, but in general longer shorts help to keep the thighs warm during the game and prevent muscle cramps.
From practice to the game, Air Jordan basketball shorts are ready for any challenge.
Unlike double-layer basketball shorts, these are made from 60% cotton, making them more comfortable for everyday leisure sports.
Children’s sports jumpers and hoodies
Children’s sports jumpers and hoodies are very useful for your child to wear in their free time, to school, and especially on the way to training in the colder months. In the transitional seasons, it is typical for training sessions to take place outside the stadium, so basketball hoodies will be extremely useful for him during warm-ups.
This set is a great choice for protection against the cold weather when your son goes to training and for warm-up time. The lightweight fabric allows the skin to breathe and allows the basketball player to move freely without being restricted by the clothing during warm-up exercises.
Its retro design will truly take it back to the old days of basketball – and trends always repeat themselves.
The extremely warm “Luka Dončić” NBA sweater is suitable for a variety of sports activities and can easily be combined with jeans. We’re sure your son will want to wear it to school every day, where he and his friends will talk about the latest Dallas Mavericks wins.
The fashionable Air Jordan Kids NBA Sweater is a great choice for young basketball players who are also style-conscious and always want to wear the latest trends. The special lilac design made of 60% cotton fibres is the right choice for sporty and trendy outdoor activities.
Basketball sneakers for kids
Choosing the right basketball shoes that fit is important because basketball requires a lot of running and jumping. Shoes that fit poorly can cause injury, especially if they do not provide enough support. Given that your child has started playing basketball at an early age, it is important that he/she protects his/her body properly.
High top shoes are popular among basketball players because they provide a high level of ankle support. The shoe stretches all the way to protect the ankles, but they are therefore heavier due to the use of more material.
The low-top basketball shoes rise just below the player’s ankle. Although it has no ankle support, it helps players to increase their speed as the ankle can flex smoothly due to the material of the shoe, allowing players to react and run faster.
Impress him with this pair of Steph Curry basketball shoes, the true master of all basketball tricks. He’s making a huge impact on younger generations of players around the world, spreading his message with Under Armour’s Curry Brand, making him one of the few players with his own brand. So in his new gear, your little one will be sure to keep shooting the basketball from impossible positions!
Let the new NBA clothes be chosen in the style that your child likes!
Over the years of playing basketball, your child will develop his/her own personal needs and will be able to make a good assessment of which type of NBA apparel suits his/her playing style and personal style. If you’re not that skilled in basketball and don’t know what to choose, ask other mums what their peers like. At the same time, you can always contact our Grosbasket consultants, who deal with this type of need on a daily basis and will be able to guide you to the right basketball gear.
