FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the Dri-FIT technology?

Dri-FIT technology is designed to wick sweat away from your skin to the surface of the fabric, where it can evaporate, keeping you dry and comfortable.

Are these shorts suitable for all sports?

While ideal for sports like football and gym training due to their breathability and moisture-wicking properties, they can be used for various athletic activities.

How do I adjust the fit of the shorts?

The shorts feature an elasticated waistband with a drawcord. You can tighten or loosen the drawcord to achieve your desired fit.

What material are the Nike Academy Shorts made from?

They are made from 100% Polyester.

How should I care for these shorts?

The shorts are machine washable. It's best to follow the specific care instructions on the garment's label.

What is the purpose of the mesh panels?

The mesh panels are incorporated for enhanced breathability, allowing air to circulate and helping to keep you cool.

Can I store my phone in the pockets?

The zip pockets are suitable for storing small items like keys, cards, or a smaller model phone. Larger phones may not fit comfortably or securely.

Troubleshooting

Shorts feel too tight or too loose

Adjust the drawcord on the waistband for a more personalized fit. If the issue persists, consider trying a different size.

Sweat-wicking performance seems reduced

Ensure the shorts are clean and free of fabric softener, which can clog the fabric's pores. Follow the recommended machine washing instructions.

Pockets do not feel secure

Ensure the zippers are fully closed. These pockets are designed for small, light items; avoid overstuffing.
