Troubleshooting

Shorts feel too tight or too loose

Adjust the internal drawcord for a personalized fit. Ensure you have selected the correct size by referring to the Nike sizing chart.

Sweat is not wicking effectively

Ensure the garment is not overly worn or damaged. Wash according to care instructions, avoiding fabric softeners which can impede wicking capabilities.

Zipper is difficult to open or close

Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. You can apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth for smoother operation.
