FAQs

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

The Dri-FIT technology is designed to wick sweat away from your skin, helping you stay dry, cool, and comfortable during physical activity.

Are these shorts suitable for all types of sports?

Yes, they are suitable for a wide range of sports and training activities due to their lightweight, breathable, and flexible design. However, for sports involving extreme abrasion, heavier-duty shorts might be considered.

How do I adjust the waistband?

The shorts feature an elastic waistband with an adjustable drawstring. You can pull the drawstring tighter to secure the fit or loosen it as needed.

What material are the shorts made of?

The Nike Dri Fit Academy 23 Shorts are made from 100% polyester, featuring a supple knit material and breathable mesh side panels.

Can I wear these for casual running?

Absolutely. Their lightweight design and moisture-wicking properties make them comfortable for casual running and other forms of exercise.

How should I wash these shorts?

Machine wash cold with like colors, use non-chlorine bleach if needed, and tumble dry on low. Avoid ironing and dry cleaning.

What is the fit like?

These shorts offer a lightweight and non-restrictive fit, designed for optimal movement. The adjustable waistband allows for a personalized fit.

Troubleshooting

Shorts feel tight or restrictive

Ensure the adjustable waistband is loosened sufficiently. Check if the size selected is appropriate for your measurements.

Moisture-wicking not effective

Ensure the garment is clean; fabric softener can impede Dri-FIT performance. Wash according to care instructions with a mild detergent.

Waistband elastic feels loose

While the drawstring provides adjustability, if the elastic itself has lost significant tension over time, it may require replacement by a professional or consideration for a new pair.
