Full details
The Nike Pro Performance Shorts are designed for active kids who need reliable, moisture-wicking gear for sports and play. Featuring signature Dri-FIT technology and a secure elastic waistband, these shorts provide optimal comfort and range of motion during high-energy activities. While the polyester material offers excellent durability and performance, parents should note that these are specifically engineered as a fitted base or athletic layer, which may feel tighter than standard casual cotton shorts.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Are these shorts suitable for swimming?
These shorts are designed for general athletic and sport performance, not specifically as swimwear.
What does the 5-6 size range mean?
This is a UK sizing standard intended for children aged approximately 5 to 6 years old.
Do these have pockets?
No, these performance shorts are designed with a streamlined, minimal fit and do not include pockets.
How should I wash them to keep the logos intact?
Turn the shorts inside out before placing them in the washing machine to protect the Nike branding from friction.
Can these be worn as a standalone garment?
Yes, while they are excellent as base layers, they can also be worn as standalone athletic shorts for activities like running or gym class.
Troubleshooting
Waistband feels too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure the shorts are pulled up correctly to sit on the natural waistline rather than the hips; check that the size corresponds to the child's current age-group sizing.
Fabric retains odor after heavy use
Use a sports-specific laundry detergent designed to penetrate synthetic fibers and neutralize bacteria that can get trapped in polyester.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Nike Pro Performance Shorts, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash in cold water with similar colors. Avoid using heavy bleach or fabric softeners, as these can degrade the moisture-wicking properties of the synthetic fibers.
- Drying: Air drying is recommended to maintain the elasticity of the waistband. If using a machine, select a low-heat setting.
- Compatibility: These shorts are designed as a performance layer and pair perfectly with other Nike Dri-FIT tops or as an under-layer beneath standard athletic gear. Ensure you are using the correct size (5-6 UK) for a proper performance fit.
