How does the sizing work for these shorts?
These shorts are available in UK women's dress sizes, with this particular item being a Size 10. Refer to Nike's standard women's sizing guide for exact measurements.
What is Dri-FIT technology?
Dri-FIT is a high-performance, microfiber, polyester fabric that moves sweat away from the body and to the fabric surface, where it evaporates, helping you stay dry and comfortable.
Can I wear these shorts for swimming?
While the polyester fabric is quick-drying, these shorts are primarily designed for athletic training and general sport, not specifically for swimming. We recommend dedicated swimwear for water activities.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel too loose or too tight during activity
Ensure the elasticated waistband's drawcord is properly adjusted. Tie it securely for a snug fit or loosen it slightly for more comfort, depending on your preference and activity.
Shorts retain sweat or feel heavy after intense workout
While Dri-FIT wicks sweat, ensure you are wearing appropriate undergarments if needed. After washing, ensure they are thoroughly dried as per care instructions, as residual moisture can affect fabric performance.
Fabric shows signs of wear or pilling after washing
Always machine wash in cold water with similar fabrics, and avoid washing with abrasive materials like denim or items with zippers that could snag the polyester. Tumble dry on a low setting or air dry to prevent heat damage.
