The Nike Pro Youth Slider Shorts give 6- to 14-year-old ballplayers a compression-fit layer that wicks sweat with Dri-FIT jersey while 5 mm foam hip pads absorb slide-burn on synthetic or clay infields; flat-lock seams and a wide elastic waistband stay flat under baseball pants—ideal for youth who want pro-level protection without bunching or chafing on the base paths.

Common Q&A’s:
-
Do these shorts run true to youth sizes?
Yes—order the same numeric size the child wears in Nike leggings; compression fit is snug but not restrictive. -

Thin 5 mm foam plus heather print camouflages under light-colored pants. -
Can the pads be removed for washing?
Pads are sewn in place; machine-wash cold, air dry to preserve foam shape.
