Here's How to Watch the 2026 Winter Olympics

As a University of South Carolina graduate and huge women’s basketball fan, I immediately wanted to snag Nike’s ‘Everyone Watches Women’s Sports’ Shirt after seeing Dawn Staley and Paige Bueckers wearing it. But I wasn’t exactly sold on the $50 price tag. However, now that this shirt is on sale for 28% off, I’ll be snagging it ASAP. Compared to the original $50, it’s now just $36, which is a steal!

Nike’s Everyone Watches Women’s Sports T-Shirt is part of the Nike X TOGETHXR line. Founded by athletes Alex Morgan, Chloe Kim, Simone Manuel and Sue Bird, TOGETHXR is a sports media and commerce company dedicated to showcasing and supporting women in sports and pushing for equal representation.

Yes, top athletes and coaches love the shirt, but so do reviewers. Customers gave this T-shirt a 4.6 out of 5-star rating on the Nike website. “This is such a high-quality shirt,” says one reviewer. “I love the heaviness of it. I’ve gotten so many compliments on both the message and the construction of the shirt. I need more of these!”

So, if you love women’s sports just as much as I do, snag this comfy shirt for 28% off on Nike’s website. It’s perfect for wearing right now, as college women’s basketball season is running, or you can wear it and support your favorite athletes year-round.

A Health Nut's Gift Guide: Gym Clothes, Equipment and More

Unless you’ve been living under a rock the past 30 years, you know that Nike is one of the top athletic brands in the world. From pro basketball to everyday fashion, the iconic “Just Do It’ brand is hard to miss. And if you’re looking to add a timeless sneaker to your collection, the Nike Killshot 2 Men’s Shoes are now on sale—just $53, down from $90.

This 41% discount applies to the Light Silver/Gum Dark Brown/White color scheme, but other styles are also at least 20% off when you use coupon code SPORT at checkout.

Inspired by the original Killshot tennis shoe, the updated Killshot 2 features soft suede and smooth leather paired with a classic gum sole. The leather Swoosh and low-profile silhouette give it that vintage court vibe that still works with today’s casual fashion.

With a 4.8 out of 5-star average rating, reviewers love the comfort and versatility of the shoe. One says, “These are very good looking shoes. Great color. Goes with almost everything.” Another added, “It’s light, comfortable and an everyday casual wear for me.”

Admittedly, availability is hit or miss on some of the more popular sizes, but the $53 pair still has nearly every size still available (for now). Don’t wait because this deal is too good to last for long.

Back-to-school shopping is in full swing, and if you’re looking to send your kid off in cool, comfy style, Nike’s got you covered. The brand that’s been iconic since the Jordan era is taking up to 50% off more than 2,000 sale items for the Nike Back to School sale, from sneakers and hoodies to joggers and jackets. Plus, you can get an extra 20% off with code SPORT at checkout.
