FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the DriFIT technology?

DriFIT technology is designed to move sweat away from your skin to the fabric's surface, where it can evaporate quickly, helping you stay dry and comfortable during physical activity.

Can I wear these shorts in cold weather?

These shorts are designed with ultralightweight and breathable fabrics, making them ideal for warmer conditions. For cold weather, layering over or under these shorts might be necessary for adequate insulation.

How should I adjust the waistband?

The narrow waistband features a drawcord that can be threaded internally or externally. Adjust it to your comfort and security preference for a personalized fit.

Are the reflective details sufficient for nighttime running safety?

Reflective details enhance visibility in low-light conditions but should be considered supplementary. Always take additional safety precautions when running in the dark, such as using lights or running in well-lit areas.

What is the inseam length of these shorts?

The inseam length for these shorts is 5 inches.

Can I store a large smartphone in the back pocket?

The back zipped pocket is designed to accommodate most smartphones, and it includes an internal moisture barrier to help keep your device dry. However, very large or bulky phone models may not fit.

How do I clean and care for the shorts?

Machine wash in cold water with like colors. Use non-chlorine bleach only if needed. Tumble dry on low heat. Do not iron or dry clean.

Troubleshooting

Shorts feel restrictive or uncomfortable

Ensure the waistband drawcord is adjusted appropriately. The drawcord can be worn internally or externally for customized support. Check that the size is correct; refer to Nike's sizing guide if unsure.

Sweat is not wicking effectively

Ensure the garment is clean, as built-up residue can impede wicking. Follow the care instructions precisely, avoiding fabric softeners which can clog the fabric's pores. Make sure the garment is not excessively tight, as this can restrict airflow.

Reflective details are fading

Avoid high heat during washing and drying. Do not iron the reflective areas. If fading persists, it may be due to normal wear and tear over time.

Pocket feels too small for phone

The back zipped pocket is designed to fit *most* phones. For larger models, consider using the side pockets for smaller items like keys or cards, and a hydration pack or belt for your phone if necessary.
