FAQs
What is Nike Dri-FIT ADV technology?
Dri-FIT ADV is an advanced version of Nike's moisture-wicking technology that combines Dri-FIT fabric with advanced engineering features to help you stay dry and comfortable.
How many pockets do these shorts have?
These shorts feature a total of eight pockets, including zip pockets, mesh-lined pockets, and smaller and larger storage options.
Can I carry a water bottle in the pockets?
While the larger pockets can accommodate smaller, soft-sided hydration flasks, they are primarily designed for items like phones, keys, and nutrition. For full water bottles, a running vest or hydration pack is recommended.
Are the back loops suitable for trekking poles?
The back loops are designed for lightweight items like towels or smaller poles. For standard-sized trekking poles, you may need a dedicated carrying system.
What material are the shorts made of?
The main body of the shorts is made of 100% Polyester, with panels made of 80% Polyester and 20% Elastane for added stretch.
How should I wash these shorts?
Machine wash cold with like colors. Use only non-chlorine bleach if needed. Tumble dry low. Remove promptly. Cool iron if needed. Do not iron graphics. Avoid fabric softeners.
Are these shorts suitable for casual wear?
While comfortable, their design is heavily geared towards athletic performance and utility. They are best suited for running and outdoor activities.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel damp or sticky after a run
Ensure the Dri-FIT ADV technology is functioning optimally by washing the shorts according to care instructions, avoiding fabric softeners, and ensuring they are not overloaded with too many items in the pockets which can impede airflow.
Waistband not staying secure
Re-adjust the elastic waistband using the cinching mechanism, ensuring it is pulled taut and tied securely. If the elastic has lost its tension over time, it may be nearing the end of its lifespan.
Pockets feel restrictive when full
Distribute items across multiple pockets rather than overfilling a single one. Consider the size and type of item; bulkier items may be better suited for the larger pockets or carried in a separate pack.

Care: Machine wash cold with like colors. Use only non-chlorine bleach if needed. Tumble dry low. Remove promptly. Cool iron if needed. Do not iron graphics.
