Nike Dri-FIT Running Shorts

Built to keep pace

Be fresh and focused over your chosen distance in a pair of Nike Dri-FIT running shorts. We make them in a choice of fits and lengths to match your preference. Look out for added-stretch materials that move with you and hold their shape. Meanwhile, pairs with brief linings provide extra comfort and support as you power through each stride. Choosing for colder weather? Pick out Nike Dri-FIT run shorts made from substantial fleece fabrics. They help you stay comfortable during warm-ups, cooldowns and chilly starts.

Sweat-wicking comfort for every mile

Our Dri-FIT running shorts help you remain cool and collected as you start to sweat. Engineered fibres actively draw away perspiration from your skin. Then they transport the dampness to the surface of the garment, dispersing it so it can dry rapidly. Plus, breathable properties in the material promote good airflow. Keep an eye out for pairs with mesh panels built into high-heat areas for added breathability where it counts. All of this means you can shed excess heat efficiently, and stay focused on hitting your goal.

Fits that work with you

The right shorts can change how a run feels. For a light, barely-there wear with room to open up your stride, go for Nike Dri-FIT running shorts with a shorter inseam. If you prefer a little more coverage, pick out a longer cut that provides added protection from the elements. Looking for shorts with a second-skin feel? Choose tightly fitting designs made from substantial fabrics that move with you and hold their shape.

Ready for training, trails and daily adventures

Our Nike Dri-FIT running shorts are built for more than race days. Comfy fits and hardwearing fabrics make them suitable for interval sessions, strength routines or active weekends. Woven styles feel light and easy as temperatures rise, while hybrid and 2-in-1 designs add coverage for dynamic movement. When it's time to get your breath back, smart pairs finished with our iconic Nike Swoosh carry you from the locker room to the street with ease.

Thoughtful designs for dedicated athletes

Because fine margins can make a big difference to your performance, we pay attention to every detail. Look out for Nike Dri-FIT run shorts with zip-closed or drop-in pockets. They mean you can keep your keys, phone and snacks with you as you train. You'll also find chafe-free seams that are built for comfort over tough distances. At the waist, deep elastic bands and discreet drawstring ties hold everything securely in place throughout your run.
