FAQs
Are these shorts water-resistant?
They feature moisture-wicking technology to move sweat away, but they are not marketed as waterproof or water-repellent.
Can I wear these for swimming?
While the material is quick-drying, they are designed as lifestyle and athletic apparel, not as dedicated swim trunks.
How should I choose my size given the oversized fit?
If you prefer a standard athletic fit rather than an oversized look, consider sizing down from your usual size.
Does the sun protection wear off?
The UV protection is built into the fabric composition and will maintain its effectiveness with proper washing and care.
What is the length of the shorts?
These shorts are designed to hit at the knee.
Troubleshooting
Drawcord has retracted into the waistband
Use a safety pin attached to one end of the drawcord to gently feed it back through the waistband casing.
Fabric feels damp after long wear
Dri-FIT relies on airflow to evaporate moisture; ensure you are not wearing non-breathable layers over or under the shorts.
Zipper feels stiff
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper teeth and gently clear any debris or sand that may have accumulated.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Nike Tech Sun Shorts, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash in cold water with similar colors. Avoid heavy detergents that might compromise the Dri-FIT technology.
- Drying: Air drying is recommended to maintain the integrity of the fabric and the elastic waistband. If machine drying, use the lowest heat setting.
- Fit Adjustment: Utilize the internal drawcord to cinch the elastic waistband; ensure it is tied securely to prevent slipping during active use.
- Sun Care Note: Remember that the UV protection only covers the area of skin shielded by the fabric. Always apply sunscreen to exposed areas like your lower legs to ensure full-body protection.
