Breathable shorts but it isn’t the best to wear with just underwear, compression pants that cover the area that rubs against your skin is my recommendation because the material is kind of abrasive and grabs hair and feels uncomfortable to the skin, but besides that these shorts are very breathable. Just make sure you get the adult one, I didn’t realise I got junior and they’re sizing is a bit smaller around the waist.

How This Was Made
- The recycled polyester used in Nike products begins as recycled plastic bottles, which are cleaned, shredded into flakes and converted into pellets. From there, the pellets are spun into new, high-quality yarn used in our products, delivering peak performance with a lower impact on the environment.
- In addition to reducing waste, recycled polyester produces up to 30% lower carbon emissions than virgin polyester. Nike diverts an average of 1 billion plastic bottles annually from landfill and waterways.
