Football shorts: more power on the pitch
When it comes to playing your best game, we know how important the right clothing can be. That's why our Nike football shorts are designed to be match-ready when you need them. We've pioneered smart fabrics and innovative technology, so you can focus on your performance. From team-branded styles to bright options that stand out on the field—we've got a pair for every player.
Quick-drying fabric for maximum comfort
Our match shorts are crafted using Nike Dri-FIT technology for a comfortable feel. This smart fabric moves sweat away from your skin for quicker evaporation, helping you stay dry. It's also breathable—letting air circulate and regulating your body heat from the first to the last blow of the whistle. No matter what climate or time of year you're playing in, your shorts will see you through.
Designs that move with you
We believe your sports clothes should work with you—not hold you back. That's why our football shorts are made from lightweight fabric that won't slow you down. What's more, smart shaping allows plenty of flex, letting you respond to the ball's movement quickly. Elasticated waistbands and drawstring cords mean you can find a comfortable fit. Look out for options with curved cuffs and seam-free stitching that feel smooth against your skin, even after a long training session.
Touchline-ready details
Thanks to some finishing touches, our football shorts look as good as they feel. You'll spot our iconic Swoosh embroidered on hems throughout the collection, often in a contrasting colour that pops. We've also got shorts styled in the same colours as the pros, so you can rep your favourite team in a matching strip—whether they're playing at home or away.
Suitable for all ages
The beautiful game is for everyone—so it's only natural we make Nike football shorts for kids too. Our collection features options for the littlest players, right up to seasoned sporting stars. Relaxed fits offer an easy wear as younger players find their feet. We've even got matching styles for the whole family to bring more fun to weekend kickabouts. Check out our full range of football strips to find coordinating tops too.
Sustainable options for a longer game
Nike's Move to Zero initiative is all about heading towards zero carbon and zero waste, and our football shorts are no exception. We design products with sustainability in mind, helping protect the future of where we all live and play. This is why you'll find pro-quality shorts made from recycled polyester. Using these innovative fabrics means we can divert an average of one billion plastic bottles annually away from landfill and waterways. On top of reducing waste, recycled polyester produces up to 30% lower carbon emissions than virgin polyester, so every kick can contribute towards a more sustainable game.
