FAQs

What is Dri-FIT technology?

Dri-FIT is Nike's moisture-wicking fabric technology designed to pull sweat away from the body to the fabric's surface, where it can evaporate, keeping you dry and comfortable.

How do I know if the size S is right for me?

Refer to Nike's official size chart for apparel, paying close attention to waist and hip measurements. The narrow waistband and inner slip suggest a more fitted experience.

Can I wear these for sports other than running?

Yes, their lightweight design and freedom of movement make them suitable for various athletic activities like gym workouts, training, or casual sports.

How much recycled material is used?

These shorts are made from at least 75% recycled polyester fibers, contributing to a more sustainable manufacturing process.

Is the back pocket large enough for all smartphones?

The pocket is geared for devices, but exact fit depends on the phone's dimensions. It is designed to securely hold most standard-sized smartphones.

How should I wash these shorts to maintain their quality?

Machine wash cold with similar colors, avoid bleach, and tumble dry on low heat. Iron on a cool setting if necessary. Avoid dry cleaning.

Troubleshooting

Shorts feel too tight

Adjust the drawstring on the waistband for a looser fit. If the issue persists, consider trying a larger size or a different model with a more relaxed fit.

Phone feels insecure in the back pocket

Ensure the phone is placed correctly within the pocket and that the back zip pocket is fully secured to prevent slippage.

Fabric feels warm during intense activity

While designed for breathability, ensure adequate hydration and consider pairing with a moisture-wicking base layer. The Dri-FIT technology works best when there is a slight airflow.
