Nba Shorts Appraisal

Nike Elite Basketball Shorts

This item is a pair of Nike Elite basketball shorts, size 'Small', as indicated by the overlay text. The main body of the shorts is a light, possibly off-white or light gray color, made from a synthetic performance fabric common for athletic wear, designed for breathability and moisture-wicking. The fabric exhibits some slight creasing, suggesting it has been worn and perhaps recently laundered. A distinctive design element is present on the lower portion of each leg: an angular, diagonal pattern of black and gray stripes. On the right leg, integrated into this striped pattern, is a subtle gray Nike 'Swoosh' logo, partially visible and blending with the stripes, indicating its Nike Elite designation. The elastic waistband is visible at the top, gathered and appearing to be in good functional condition. The stitching appears consistent and robust, typical of athletic apparel. There are no obvious rips, tears, or significant stains; however, being 'used' as per the context, minor signs of wear such as slight fabric pilling or fading may be present though not clearly discernible from the image. The overall construction suggests a standard, durable athletic garment from a well-known brand, likely from the contemporary period (last 10-15 years) given the styling cues.
