FAQs
What is Nike Dri-FIT technology?
Nike Dri-FIT is an innovative polyester fabric designed to help keep you dry and comfortable. It moves sweat from your skin to the fabric's surface, where it quickly evaporates, keeping you cool and dry during physical activity.
Are these leggings suitable for all types of sports?
Yes, with their moisture-wicking Dri-FIT technology and flexible design, these leggings are highly versatile and suitable for a wide range of activities, including running, gymnastics, dance, football, and general active play.
How do I choose the correct size for my child?
This specific product is for children in the UK size 7-8 range. For best fit, measure your child's waist and inseam and compare it against Nike's official children's size chart. Leggings should be snug but not restrictive.
Can these leggings be worn in cold weather?
While the leggings provide a layer of coverage, they are not specifically designed for extreme cold weather. For colder conditions, they can be effectively used as a base layer under warmer clothing.
What materials are these leggings made from?
The main body of the leggings is composed of 83% Polyester and 17% Spandex. The mesh panels, which contribute to breathability, are made from 92% Recycled Polyester and 8% Spandex.
Will the color fade after washing?
To prevent color fading, always wash the leggings in cold water and with similar colors. Avoid harsh detergents and bleach. Following the care instructions will help maintain the vibrancy of the Rush Fuchsia color.
Troubleshooting
Leggings feel too tight or uncomfortable.
Ensure the correct size has been chosen. While they are designed to be snug, they shouldn't restrict movement. Consult the Nike sizing guide for children if unsure. Discomfort might also arise from incorrect washing; ensure no fabric softener has been used.
Dri-FIT technology doesn't seem to be working effectively (leggings feel damp).
Fabric softeners can build up on synthetic materials and block their moisture-wicking properties. Re-wash the leggings without fabric softener, or try a sports-specific detergent designed to remove residue. Ensure they are thoroughly dry before wear.
Foul odor persists even after washing.
Synthetic fabrics can sometimes retain odors. Try washing with a sports-specific detergent formulated to neutralize odors. A pre-soak in a solution of water and white vinegar (1 part vinegar to 4 parts water) for 30 minutes before washing can also help.
Fabric appears damaged or stretched out prematurely.
Review care instructions to ensure they are being followed. High heat during washing or drying can damage the spandex fibers, leading to loss of elasticity. Avoid abrasive surfaces during play that could snag the material.

Care Instructions
Proper care is essential to maintain the performance and longevity of your Nike Pro Leggings, especially the Dri-FIT properties. Follow these guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash cold with like colors. Use a gentle cycle.
- Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can clog the fabric fibers and reduce the wicking effectiveness of Dri-FIT.
- Bleaching: Do not bleach.
- Drying: Tumble dry low or hang dry for best results. Avoid high heat.
- Ironing: Do not iron.
- Dry Cleaning: Do not dry clean.
Following these steps will help preserve the fabric's integrity and sweat-wicking capabilities.
