FAQs
What is Dri-Fit technology?
Dri-Fit is Nike's signature performance fabric technology designed to move sweat away from your body and to the fabric surface, where it evaporates quickly. This helps keep you dry and comfortable during physical activity.
Are these shorts suitable for all sports?
Yes, their supportive, stretchy, and moisture-wicking properties make them suitable for a wide range of activities, including running, gymnastics, soccer, dance, and general athletic training. They can be worn alone or as a base layer.
How do I choose the correct size for my child?
These shorts are sized for 'Junior Girls' aged 9-10. For the best fit, refer to Nike's official size chart, which usually provides waist and hip measurements. If in doubt, trying on is recommended, as fit preference can vary.
Can these shorts be worn by boys?
While these specific shorts are marketed for 'Junior Girls', the functional benefits of supportive, moisture-wicking athletic shorts are universal. Boys could wear them for athletic activities, though they may prefer different fits or styles typically marketed towards boys.
Will these shorts become see-through when stretched?
Nike Pro shorts are generally designed with high-quality, dense fabric to provide coverage even when stretched. However, choosing the correct size is crucial; shorts that are too small and overstretched may show more than intended.
How should I wash these shorts to maintain their quality?
Machine wash cold with similar colors. Do not use fabric softener, bleach, or iron. Tumble dry low or hang dry to preserve the integrity of the fabric and its moisture-wicking properties.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel uncomfortable or too tight.
Ensure you have the correct size. While these shorts are designed to be supportive and snug, they should not feel restrictive or painful. Check the sizing guide again and consider if a different size might be more suitable for your child's body type.
Waistband rolls down during activity.
This often indicates a sizing issue. If the waistband is rolling, the shorts might be too small around the waist, causing it to fold. Alternatively, if they are too large, they may not sit flat. Verify the sizing against your child's measurements.
Dri-Fit technology seems less effective; shorts feel sweaty.
Ensure the shorts are clean and free of fabric softener residue, which can block the fabric's wicking ability. Also, a proper snug (but not overly tight) fit is crucial for the Dri-Fit technology to work effectively against the skin.
Fabric appears worn or stretched out quickly.
Review care instructions to ensure proper washing and drying. Avoid excessive heat in drying and ensure they are not being used for activities that cause undue friction or abrasion that the material isn't designed for.

Care Instructions
Proper care will extend the life and performance of your Nike Pro Shorts:
- Washing: Machine wash cold with like colors. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can hinder the moisture-wicking properties of the Dri-Fit fabric.
- Drying: Tumble dry low. Do not iron or dry clean. Air drying is also a good option to preserve fabric integrity.
- Bleaching: Do not bleach, as this can damage the material and affect its stretch and color.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
