Washing & Care Instructions Machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle to maintain the integrity of the polyester fibres and the vibrant colour. Rinse with fresh water immediately after use in chlorinated pools or salt water to prevent fabric degradation. Hang the shorts to dry naturally away from direct heat sources; the quick-dry fabric is designed to be ready for use in a short time. Avoid the use of fabric softeners or bleach, as these can compromise the technical performance and moisture-wicking properties. Do not iron the embroidered logo or the main body, as the synthetic materials are naturally resistant to heavy creasing. Our Nike Swim Core Solid 5" Shorts FAQs Do these shorts have an internal liner?Yes, these shorts are designed with an internal mesh brief to provide essential support and comfort during water activities. How fast do they actually dry?Due to the 100% polyester construction, moisture is wicked away from the surface quickly, meaning they usually dry within minutes of leaving the water. Are the pockets deep enough for a phone?The side pockets are designed for general utility and include mesh drainage, making them perfect for smaller essentials when on dry land. Is the waistband adjustable?Yes, the combination of a robust elastic band and an internal drawcord allows you to secure the fit precisely to your waist.
