Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Nike Stride shorts, always follow the care label instructions. It is recommended to machine wash in cold water with similar colors. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can degrade the moisture-wicking properties of the synthetic fibers.
For drying, air-drying is the best method to maintain the integrity of the elastic waistband and the structural fit of the shorts. If you must use a dryer, choose the lowest heat setting. Because these shorts feature a specialized storage pocket, ensure all items are removed from the pocket before laundering to prevent damage to both the device and the garment.
