Basketball Shorts in 9 Days

Can I wear freshly laundered basketball shorts during the 9 days? Do they qualifies “big’day zay’ah”?

Answer:

No, bigday zeah refer to clothing worn against a person’s skin specifically to soak up sweat. Clothing which is meant as a garment is included in this prohibition even if it is used in a fashion which commonly gets very sweaty.
