Nike gives teachers, faculty and staff at accredited US schools 10% off most items on Nike.com and in the Nike App. You verify once, get a single-use promo code, and enter it at checkout while you’re signed in to your Nike Member account. If a pair of running shoes or a gift is on your Black Friday list, read the limits below before you build your cart.
Nike is the sportswear brand behind Air Force 1s, Air Max and Jordan, and it sells shoes, clothing and gear for the whole family. You can browse more brands on our clothing and accessories discounts for teachers page.
How To Get The Nike Teacher Discount
You need to be a Nike Member who works as a teacher, faculty member or administrator at an accredited K-12 school or university. Nike’s wording is about the job you hold, so if you’re a substitute, an aide or a coach, the verification form is where you find out whether your role counts.
- Go to Nike’s teacher discount page and click Verify Status.
- Fill in the form with your school-issued email address. The form runs through SheerID, and you may be asked to upload a document, such as a dated ID card, a pay stub from the last 90 days, an official letter or a signed job offer letter.
- Once you’re verified, Nike sends you a single-use promo code for 10% off most items.
- Sign in to your Nike Member profile and enter the code at checkout, on Nike.com or in the Nike App.
Check the total at checkout before you pay.
What To Know Before You Shop
The code expires two weeks after Nike issues it, so verify when you’re ready to buy, not weeks ahead. Each code works one time. If you need another, you can get a new one every seven days by verifying again.
The 10% applies to the first $500 of your purchase. That caps the savings at $50 per order. The code only works on Nike.com and in the Nike App. It doesn’t work in Nike stores or on Swoosh.com.
Nike names a few things the code won’t cover: Nike By You, gift cards, select Launch and SNKRS products, and Apple products. The code can be combined with free shipping codes, but not with other promo codes. Nike doesn’t say whether it stacks with sale prices, so the order total is the place to see what you actually save.
