FAQs
What does 'Dri-FIT technology' mean?
Dri-FIT is Nike's proprietary high-performance, microfiber, polyester fabric that moves sweat away from your body and to the fabric surface, where it evaporates. This helps you stay dry and comfortable.
Are these shorts suitable for all types of sports?
Yes, these shorts are designed for versatility and are suitable for most sports and athletic activities where comfort, flexibility, and sweat-wicking are beneficial, such as running, gymnastics, soccer, and training.
How do I choose the correct size for my child?
Refer to the Nike kids' sizing chart, which typically bases sizes on age and height. It's recommended to measure your child's waist and hips for the most accurate fit. If between sizes, consider if you prefer a snug or slightly looser fit.
What material are these shorts made from?
The Nike Pro Performance Shorts are crafted from a technical polyester composition, specifically chosen for its durability, stretch, and advanced moisture-wicking capabilities.
Can these shorts be tumble dried?
Yes, these shorts can be tumble dried on a low heat setting. For best results and to extend the life of the garment, remove them promptly once dry or consider air drying.
Do these shorts have pockets?
No, Nike Pro Performance Shorts are typically designed for streamlined performance and do not include pockets, focusing on an unencumbered fit during activity.
Is the elastic waistband adjustable?
The elasticated waistband provides a comfortable stretch fit. While it is not typically adjustable with a drawstring on kids' sizes, its inherent stretch adapts well to the wearer.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel uncomfortable or restrictive during movement.
Ensure the correct size has been selected based on Nike's size chart for kids. A size too small can restrict movement, while a size too large may bunch or slip. The elasticated waistband should feel snug but not tight.
Shorts are not effectively wicking sweat or feel damp after exercise.
Verify that fabric softener is not being used during washing, as it can hinder the `Dri-FIT` technology. Ensure the shorts are clean and free of residues. If the fit is too tight, it can sometimes prevent proper airflow and wicking. Also, consider the intensity and duration of activity; extremely heavy perspiration may saturate any fabric over time.
Fabric appears worn or pilled after a few washes.
Always wash the shorts inside out to protect the outer surface and logos. Use a gentle cycle with cold water. Avoid washing with abrasive items like zippers or Velcro, which can snag and damage the fabric. Air drying or tumble drying on low heat can also help prevent wear.

These shorts require no setup beyond putting them on. They are compatible with a wide range of athletic tops, sports bras, and shoes. For optimal performance and longevity, follow these care instructions: 1. Washing: Machine wash cold with like colors. Use a gentle cycle. 2. Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach, as they can damage the `Dri-FIT` properties. 3. Drying: Tumble dry low. Remove promptly. Air drying is also recommended to preserve fabric integrity. 4. Ironing: Do not iron the shorts, as high heat can damage the fabric and printed logos. 5. Fabric Softeners: Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can leave a residue that clogs the fibers and reduces the effectiveness of the `Dri-FIT` technology.
