FAQs
What is Dri-FIT technology?
Dri-FIT is a technology developed by Nike that helps wick moisture away from the body to the surface of the fabric, where it can evaporate. This helps keep the wearer dry and comfortable during physical activity.
How do I know if the UK 7-8 size will fit my child?
The UK 7-8 size is typically suitable for children around 7 to 8 years old. It is recommended to consult Nike's official size chart for precise measurements of waist, hip, and inseam to ensure the best fit.
Can these pants be worn for sports other than football?
Yes, these track pants are versatile and suitable for a wide range of sports and physical activities, including running, training, and general athletic wear, due to their comfortable fit and sweat-wicking properties.
Are the zippered ankles functional or decorative?
The zippered ankles are functional. They allow for easier removal and putting on of the pants, especially when wearing shoes, and can also be unzipped to provide additional ventilation.
What are the pants made of?
The Nike Academy Track Pants are made from 100% Polyester knit fabric, with mesh panels for added breathability.
How should I wash these track pants?
They are machine washable. It is recommended to wash them with like colors in cold water on a gentle cycle and tumble dry on low heat or hang to dry to maintain the fabric's performance and shape.
Do these pants have pockets?
Yes, these track pants feature zip-fasten side pockets for secure storage of small items.
Troubleshooting
Pilling or fabric wear after washing.
Ensure the pants are washed inside out on a gentle cycle with cold water. Avoid washing with heavy or abrasive items like jeans. Air dry or tumble dry on low heat.
Elastic waistband feels too tight or too loose.
Adjust the internal drawcord for a custom fit. If the elastic itself has lost its stretch, it may indicate wear and tear over time.
Zipper on ankle becomes stuck.
Gently try to move the zipper up and down. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a mild lubricant to the zipper teeth to help it slide smoothly. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.
Dri-FIT technology feels less effective.
Ensure you are not using fabric softeners or harsh detergents, as these can clog the fabric's pores and reduce moisture-wicking capabilities. Wash according to care instructions.
