Setup, Compatibility & Care
Understanding how to properly use and care for your Nike Essential Micro Trunks will ensure maximum comfort and longevity.
Setup
Simply wear these trunks as your foundational layer. Ensure you select the correct size to achieve the optimal balance of comfort, support, and non-restrictive movement. A properly fitted trunk will feel secure but not tight.
Compatibility
These trunks are designed for adult males and are highly versatile. Their sleek, low-profile design means they can be worn comfortably under virtually any type of outer clothing, from athletic shorts and sweatpants to jeans and dress trousers, without adding bulk.
Care Instructions
Proper care is crucial for maintaining the performance benefits, particularly the Dri-FIT Technology, and extending the life of your trunks. The material composition is 94% Recycled Polyester, 6% Elastane.
- Washing: Machine wash cold with like colors. To protect the integrity of the fabric and its moisture-wicking properties, use a mild detergent. Avoid using bleach, harsh chemicals, or fabric softeners, as these can break down the fibers and impair performance.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting, or preferably, hang dry. High heat can damage the elastic waistband and synthetic fibers, leading to a loss of shape and elasticity. Ensure they are completely dry before storing.
- Ironing: Do not iron. The synthetic material is prone to damage from high heat and typically does not wrinkle significantly.
