FAQs

How long does the anti-insect treatment last?

The anti-insect treatment is effective for a significant number of washes, but its potency may decrease over time. Always follow the recommended care instructions to prolong its effectiveness.

Is the anti-insect treatment safe for skin?

Yes, the treatment is designed to be safe for skin contact while effectively repelling insects.

What does UPF 50+ mean?

UPF 50+ signifies that the fabric provides 'Excellent' protection against ultraviolet (UV) radiation, blocking at least 98% of UV rays when worn.

Can I wear this shirt in cold weather?

This shirt is designed for warm weather and active performance. It is lightweight and does not provide insulation. For colder conditions, layering would be necessary.

What are the washing instructions?

Machine wash at 30°C with a mild detergent. Rinse thoroughly and tumble dry on low heat or line dry. Avoid fabric softeners.

Is the fabric eco-friendly?

Yes, the ISOFLEX fabric is made using a percentage of recycled polyester, contributing to sustainability.

What is the main benefit of the 'active stretch' fabric?

The active stretch fabric allows for greater freedom of movement, making it ideal for activities that require flexibility and unrestricted motion.

Troubleshooting

Insect treatment seems less effective after several washes.

The anti-insect treatment is designed to last for a specific number of washes. Consider reapplying a fabric-safe insect repellent treatment if performance diminishes significantly. Follow care instructions to maximize longevity.

Shirt feels warm in very high humidity.

While designed for breathability, extreme humidity can still make any garment feel warm. Ensure good airflow by unzipping if applicable, and consider the quick-drying nature to manage sweat effectively.

Sizing feels larger than expected.

This shirt is designed with a regular fit and active stretch. Refer to the Regatta size chart for accurate measurements. If between sizes, consider sizing down for a closer fit.
