Regatta Anti-insect Travel Shirt - Floral - Blue - Size: 18

The duration of the anti-insect treatment depends on usage and care. Following the recommended washing instructions (avoiding fabric softeners) helps maintain its effectiveness for longer. Specific product literature may provide an estimated number of washes.

The treatment is designed to repel insects and is generally safe for skin contact when used as directed. If you have particularly sensitive skin, monitor for any reactions.

UPF stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor. A UPF 50+ rating means the fabric blocks at least 98% of the sun's harmful UV rays.

While lightweight, it can be layered with other garments for warmth. However, its primary design is for warm weather and active use where breathability is key.

Wash on a gentle cycle with cold or lukewarm water and mild detergent. Avoid high heat when drying. Air drying is recommended to preserve the fabric's integrity and the treatment's effectiveness.

ISOFLEX is Regatta's designation for their technical stretch fabrics, designed to offer excellent durability, stretch, and comfort for active outdoor pursuits.

It is recommended to air dry the shirt to maintain the integrity of the anti-insect treatment and the fabric. If tumble drying is necessary, use a very low heat setting, but avoid high heat.

Ensure the garment has been washed according to care instructions, avoiding fabric softeners. Re-treatment may be necessary after extended use. Check the manufacturer's specific recommendations for re-application if available.

This can sometimes happen if fabric softener was used inadvertently. Try rinsing the garment again without detergent. Ensure you are using a mild detergent and adhering to the 'no fabric softener' rule.

Check for any fabric obstructions. Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. If debris is present, carefully remove it. Applying a small amount of wax or silicone-based lubricant (ensure it's fabric-safe) can help.
