FAQs

How long does the anti-insect treatment last?

The anti-insect treatment is designed to provide protection for a specified number of washes, typically detailed on the product's care label. It is generally effective for the lifespan of the garment under normal use and care.

Is the anti-insect treatment safe for skin?

Yes, the anti-insect treatments used in Regatta apparel are generally considered safe for skin contact when used as directed. They are designed to repel insects effectively without causing irritation.

What does UPF 50+ mean?

UPF 50+ stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor and indicates that the fabric blocks over 98% of the sun's harmful UV rays, offering excellent sun protection.

Can I wear this shirt in very hot and humid weather?

The shirt is lightweight and quick-drying, which helps with comfort in warm conditions. However, as it is made primarily of polyester, it may not be as breathable as natural fibers like cotton in extreme, stagnant heat.

How should I wash this shirt to maintain its properties?

Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle with similar colours. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners, and tumble dry on low or hang dry. Do not iron prints.

What is the 'Sun Shield Collar' feature?

The Sun Shield Collar is a fold-up collar designed to provide extra protection to the back of your neck from sun exposure.

Is the shirt waterproof?

No, this shirt is not waterproof. It is designed for breathability and protection from the sun and insects, not from rain.

Troubleshooting

Shirt feels slightly stiff after washing

This can sometimes happen with treated fabrics. Ensure you have not used fabric softener. A low-heat tumble dry can help restore softness, or simply wear the shirt for a short period.

Anti-insect treatment effectiveness seems reduced

The anti-insect treatment is designed to last for a specific number of washes. Refer to the product care label for wash cycle limitations. Avoid excessive washing if the treatment is a primary concern.

Zipped pocket is difficult to open/close

Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper. Gently pull the zipper tab. If it remains stiff, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) can help lubricate the teeth.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent protection against both UV rays and insect bites.
  • Lightweight and quick-drying fabric for maximum comfort.

Cons

  • The anti-insect treatment may have a noticeable scent.

Compatibility: This shirt is designed for general outdoor activities such as hiking, trekking, travel, and casual wear. It is compatible with other outdoor gear like backpacks and waterproof shells.

Care Instructions:

  • Ironing: Iron on a low heat setting. Do not iron directly on prints or trims.
  • Washing with Similar Colours: Wash with colours of a similar shade.
  • Avoid Fabric Softeners: Do not use fabric softeners, as they can affect the fabric's performance and the anti-insect treatment.
