Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Nike Swim shorts, rinse them thoroughly with fresh water after every use in chlorine or salt water. Machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water and mild detergent. Avoid using bleach, fabric softeners, or ironing the garment, as these can damage the specialized synthetic fabrics and the printed Swoosh logo. Hang-dry the shorts in a shaded area away from direct sunlight to prevent premature color fading and fiber degradation.
