FAQs

What is the inseam length of these shorts?

These shorts feature a 5-inch inseam, which is designed for an athletic, above-the-knee fit.

Do these shorts have a built-in liner?

Yes, they include an integrated mesh lining to provide support and comfort while swimming.

Can I wear these as regular shorts?

Yes, their casual design and side pockets make them suitable for wearing in and out of the water, though they are primarily optimized for swim activities.

How should I clean my swim shorts?

Rinse with fresh water after each use and machine wash cold on a delicate cycle. Air dry away from direct heat.

Are the pockets waterproof?

No, the side pockets are designed for convenience and are not waterproof; please remove any sensitive electronic devices before entering the water.

Troubleshooting

Drawstring becomes stuck or knotted

Gently manipulate the knot while the fabric is dry to loosen it; avoid pulling forcefully to prevent tearing the waistband casing.

Fabric feels heavy or slow to dry

Ensure that the shorts have been thoroughly rinsed of salt or pool chemicals after use, as residue can trap moisture.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Nike Swim shorts, proper maintenance is essential. The adjustable drawstring should be tightened before entering the water to ensure the shorts remain secure during vigorous movement.

Care Instructions:

  1. Always rinse with fresh, cold water immediately after exposure to chlorine or saltwater to prevent fabric degradation.
  2. Machine wash in cold water with similar colors on a gentle cycle.
  3. Do not use bleach or fabric softeners, as these can damage the specialized synthetic fibers.
  4. Hang to air dry in a shaded area; avoid direct sunlight and tumble drying to prevent shrinking or damage to the elastic waistband.
