FAQs
What is the inseam length of these shorts?
These are the Nike Men's Running Stride Dri-FIT 5 Inch Brief-Lined Shorts, indicating a 5-inch inseam.
Are these shorts suitable for other sports besides running?
While designed with running-specific features like the streamlined cut and Dri-FIT technology, they can be used for other athletic activities where lightweight, moisture-wicking shorts are beneficial. However, their primary design focus is running performance.
How do I determine my correct size?
Refer to the 'Size & Fit' section in the product description. It provides waist sizes in inches for each available size (S-2XL). Compare your waist measurement to these ranges for the most accurate selection.
Can I wear the drawcord inside or outside the waistband?
Yes, the narrow waistband features a drawcord that can be worn either internally or externally, allowing for a customized fit.
What material are the shorts made of?
The main body of the shorts is made of 88% Polyester and 12% Spandex. The mesh panels are 100% Polyester.
How do I clean the shorts to maintain their performance?
Machine wash cold with like colors. Use only non-chlorine bleach if needed. Tumble dry on a low setting. Do not iron or dry clean. Avoid fabric softeners.
Do the pockets offer secure storage for a phone?
Yes, the shorts feature two zip side pockets and a zipped back pocket. The back pocket is designed to fit most phones and includes an internal moisture barrier to help protect your device from sweat.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel too tight or restrictive
Verify you have selected the correct size based on the waist measurements provided in the product details. Consider if a larger size might be more comfortable, though it may affect the streamlined fit.
Dri-FIT technology not wicking sweat effectively
Ensure the shorts are washed with like colors using a mild detergent and without fabric softener. Residue from fabric softeners can impede the fabric's moisture-wicking capabilities.
Zipper on pockets is difficult to use
Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
Chafing during runs
Ensure the brief liner is positioned correctly. For longer runs, consider using an anti-chafing balm on potential friction points. The 'true to size' fit is intended to minimize movement, but individual fit can vary.
