Nike shorts, pants, leggings and skirts

This page holds Nike shorts, leggings, pants and tennis skirts for men, women and kids. Shorts are the biggest group, followed by leggings, pants and a few tennis skirts. The fabric tells you what each pair is for.

• Dri-FIT: Nike's sweat-wicking fabric, which moves sweat away from your skin for quicker evaporation. You will find it on Academy football shorts and pants, Totality and Unlimited training shorts, and Court Victory tennis shorts and skirts.
• Club fleece and French terry: soft fleece and French terry fabrics for everyday wear, on Club Fleece pants and joggers and French terry shorts.
• Woven: lightweight shorts and joggers, such as the Club Woven range and the Club Woven Cargo Shorts with flap-over pockets.

How long should your shorts be?

Many Nike shorts list their inseam, the length of the leg. The Academy Dri-FIT football shorts for kids have a 7 inch inseam, the Totality and Court Victory shorts are 7 inch, the Club Shorts are 6 inch, and the Nike Pro Workout Shorts for women are 3 inch. The Stride 2-in-1 running shorts add a full-length internal liner, and the Stride 5 inch shorts are brief-lined.

Nike leggings for women and girls

The One High-Waisted leggings have a drop-in pocket on the back of the waistband large enough for a phone. The Sportswear Classics leggings are high-waisted, and Nike says they are more durable, less sheer and twice as stretchy as its previous Essentials leggings. For running, the Epic Fast leggings have mesh panels behind the knees and a reflective Swoosh.

If you want one pair for training, start with Dri-FIT shorts such as the Totality. For everyday wear, choose Club fleece pants. You can also browse Dri-FIT, men's shorts or leggings.
