FAQs

What material are these shorts made of?

These shorts are made from 100% Cotton French Terry fabric.

Are these shorts suitable for running?

They are best suited for casual wear and light activities. For intense running, you might consider Nike's performance-specific shorts.

How do I find the right size?

Please refer to the Nike sizing chart for women's apparel. The adjustable drawstring also provides some flexibility in fit.

Can I wear these in cooler weather?

The mid-weight French Terry fabric offers some warmth, making them suitable for transitional weather or layering, but they are primarily designed for comfort in milder temperatures or indoors.

How should I wash these shorts to maintain their quality?

Machine wash cold with like colours, use non-chlorine bleach if needed, and tumble dry on low heat. Avoid dry cleaning.

Do the pockets have zippers?

No, the pockets are open, designed for easy access to small items.

What does 'French Terry' mean for the fabric feel?

French Terry fabric has loops on the inside and a smooth surface on the outside, providing a soft, absorbent, and comfortable feel.

Troubleshooting

Shorts feel too tight or loose at the waist.

Adjust the drawstring to achieve a comfortable and secure fit. Ensure the drawstring is tied appropriately.

Fabric feels stiff after washing.

Ensure you are following the care instructions, particularly regarding bleach and drying methods. A low-heat tumble dry or air drying can help maintain softness.

Swoosh logo appears faded.

Avoid excessive heat during washing and drying, and do not use harsh detergents or bleach, as these can degrade the embroidered threads over time.
