FAQs

What material are these shorts made of?

The Nike Academy Shorts are made from 100% polyester.

How do I ensure I get the right size?

It is recommended to consult the Nike sizing chart provided on the product page. The model in the description is 6'1" and wears a size M as a reference.

Are these shorts suitable for all sports?

Yes, they are designed for athletic performance and are suitable for most sports and training activities due to their breathable fabric and sweat-wicking technology.

Can I use fabric softener when washing these shorts?

No, it is advised not to use fabric softener as it can impede the effectiveness of the Dri-FIT technology by clogging the fibers.

What is the purpose of the mesh lining in the zip pockets?

The mesh lining in the zip pockets provides additional ventilation to help keep the contents and the pocket area dry.

Do these shorts have built-in underwear?

The product description does not specify the presence of built-in underwear. It only mentions zip pockets with mesh linings.

Are there other color options available?

This specific product variant is in a Diffused Blue and Psychic Blue combination. Other Nike Academy shorts may be available in different colors.

Troubleshooting

Shorts feel tight or loose despite ordering the correct size.

Utilize the drawcord-adjustable waistband to fine-tune the fit. If the issue persists, consult the Nike sizing chart for accurate measurements before purchasing or consider a different size.

Sweat is not wicking effectively.

Ensure the shorts are washed according to care instructions, using mild detergent and avoiding fabric softeners. Persistent issues may indicate wear and tear over time.

Zippers are difficult to operate.

Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. If it remains stiff, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) applied to the zipper teeth can help. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.
