FAQs
What does 'Dri-FIT' mean?
Dri-FIT is Nike's proprietary technology designed to wick sweat and moisture away from the skin to the surface of the fabric, where it can evaporate, helping you stay dry and comfortable.
How do I find the right size?
The product description provides a size guide: XS (UK 4-6), S (UK 8-10), M (UK 12-14), L (UK 16-18), XL (UK 20-22). It's recommended to measure yourself and compare with the guide for the best fit.
Are these shorts suitable for running?
Yes, the lightweight, stretchy fabric and moisture-wicking properties make them suitable for running, especially shorter distances or as part of a layering system. The 5-inch inseam and no-front-seam design help prevent chafing.
What is the material composition?
The shorts are made from 46% Polyester, 41% Nylon, and 13% Spandex, providing a blend of durability, stretch, and moisture management.
Can I wear these for yoga or pilates?
Absolutely. The seamless construction, high waist, and stretch fabric offer comfort and flexibility, making them a good choice for activities like yoga and pilates.
Do the ribbed zones add significant compression?
The ribbed zones are designed for shaping and targeted support, rather than intense compression. They enhance the sculpted fit without feeling overly restrictive.
What is the inseam length?
The inseam length is 5 inches.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel too tight or too loose
Refer to the detailed size guide provided in the product description to ensure you have selected the correct size. Seamless garments can fit differently; consider trying a different size if the fit is significantly off.
Dri-FIT technology not wicking sweat effectively
Ensure the garment is washed with a mild detergent and no fabric softener, as these can clog the fabric's pores and reduce its moisture-wicking capabilities. Wash with similar synthetic materials.
Seams feel uncomfortable or cause irritation
While designed to be seamless, some individuals may be sensitive. Try wearing them for a short period to break them in. Ensure the garment is the correct size, as incorrect sizing can exacerbate discomfort.
Shorts lose shape after washing
Avoid high heat drying. Tumble dry on low or, preferably, hang dry. Do not iron. Follow the machine wash instructions carefully.
