Feel cool and collected

Looking for apparel that helps you stay fresh and comfortable for longer? Look for women's knee-length shorts made with our acclaimed Dri-FIT technology. It uses engineered fibres to actively wick away sweat from your skin. Then, it draws the moisture to the surface, so it can disperse and dry quickly. Plus, breathable properties in the material promote good airflow. You'll also find pairs featuring mesh panels in high-heat areas for maximum ventilation. The result? You can shed excess warmth and stay focused on your training.

Find your form

If you need to see your lines while you train, our range of knee-length shorts for women has you covered. We have snugly fitted options that hug close to your body for a streamlined look. We make them from opaque materials for squat-proof confidence. There's also plenty of stretch in the fibres, so your shorts can move with you and hold their shape. At the waist, deep elastic bands ensure a no-roll effect that won't pinch or bunch. Heading out for a hike? Look for styles with flat seams. These are made to eliminate chafing during repeated movements. Find biker-length pairs for a minimal feel, alongside knee-length and Capri cuts for a little more coverage.

Power through your training

For apparel that sets you free to move, check out our women's knee-length shorts in looser fits. They're made in generous, semi-structured silhouettes for a breezy feel. Keep an eye out for side-split hems for extra freedom of movement. At the waistband, drawcord ties hold everything securely in place. To keep your belongings with you as you train, go for shorts with zip-closed pockets.

Cool down in comfort

We know that a great training programme includes rest days as well as test days. When it's time to kick back, we have knee-length shorts for women that are made for taking it easy. Look out for super-soft French terry shorts that combine a laidback shape with a premium feel. Meanwhile, cosy brushback finishes on the inside feel great against your skin. If you want lighter coverage for warmer weather, check out our chino-style shorts. They're cut from light, breathable material that helps you stay fresh and comfortable.

Our biggest goal

Nike's Move to Zero is our journey towards a zero-carbon and zero-waste future. To join us, choose women's knee-length shorts with our Sustainable Materials tag. It means we've made the apparel with at least 50% recycled content. Think durable polyester spun from old plastic bottles, carpets and fishing nets diverted from landfill.
