My son loves them

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son does not want to take these shorts off. They are the perfect length for him and so comfortable. I wondered how they would do in the washer/dryer, but they came out looking the same.

Nike Dri-FIT Elite Kids' Basketball Shorts

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It’s that time of the year where the cold weather starts, which means no shorts to the gym. However I usually keep them in my rotation when I’m working out at home. I usually wear a large in big boys which fits comfortably. However the Nike Dri-Fit elite shorts runs small and is tight around my thighs and waist. I have a love/hate relationship with the Dri-Fit design/fabric. On one hand I love dri-fit because it means minimal to no sweat stains after an intense workout but on the other hand the material feels cheaply made and not very durable. Additionally the pants has no stretch which makes it very uncomfortable when squatting. I know it’s a basketball shorts and I even tried playing basketball with my son in it. Due to the fact it had no stretch after a few minutes it left red marks on my thighs. The one thing I definitely would change if I had the opportunity , is to incorporate a fabric that has a more stretch and flexibility into the dri-fit design.

Pretty nice pair of shorts

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like these shirts for my son. They fit well, they are breathable, durable, and does the job for regularly activity or for sports practice. The only suggestion I have to go make them with a tad bit thicker material. Otherwise, we’d purchase and wear regularly.

Nike Basketball Short

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These shorts are super comfy and the perfect length. I am a petite adult although these shorts are made for children. Enough room to move in but not too baggy. I enjoy the adjustable draw string. I probably wouldn’t work out in them personally but will wear them for athleisure.

Good Shorts for Kids

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got these shorts for my son. He’s very active as kids are and these have held up great. Lots of playground and outdoor time for him and these kept him nice and cool.

Perfect Length Basketball Shorts

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These basketball shorts are super comfy, comes with pockets and a drawstring, and is the perfect length to hit right above the knees to keep my legs from burning on a hot car seat. The Dri-Fit material is a bonus.

Good shorts for kids

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This review is for my son. The Nike Dri-FIT Elite Kids' Basketball Shorts are definatly worth it to buy for your child. My son loves to wear shorts even on cold days. Since the time I asked him to try these on hes never removed them and says this is the most comfortable to wear. My son is 10 and got size medium for him . The length is good coz he likes just above the knee. He likes the color and might get other colors since he said he'll use it for school too. These are my sons go to shorts! I just received these shorts so can't say enough about how durable it is. Will update my review after a few months.
