FAQs

What is the main benefit of the NosiDefence treatment?

NosiDefence is a fabric technology designed to provide a protective barrier against biting insects, helping to deter them from landing on or penetrating the fabric.

How effective is the Solarshield UPF 50+ rating?

UPF 50+ is considered excellent sun protection. It means the fabric will block over 98% of harmful UV rays, significantly reducing your skin's exposure to the sun.

Can I wear this shirt in very hot weather?

Yes, the polycotton blend is breathable, and the roll-up sleeves allow you to adjust ventilation. The relaxed fit also promotes airflow, making it suitable for warm conditions.

How do I know which size to order?

Refer to the sizing chart provided in the product description. Measurements are given in inches for chest size (e.g., L: 43 in). Compare your own measurements to find the best fit.

Is the shirt waterproof?

No, the Craghoppers Shirt Kiwi II is not waterproof. It is designed for sun protection and insect repellency, not rain protection.

How do I care for the anti-insect treatment?

Follow the general washing instructions: wash at 30°C with similar colors and avoid harsh chemicals or fabric softeners, as these can degrade the treatment over time.

What does 'recycled' mean in the material composition?

It means that a portion of the polyester and cotton used in the fabric has been sourced from post-consumer or post-industrial waste, reducing the need for virgin materials.

Troubleshooting

Shirt feels stiff after washing.

This can sometimes happen with technical fabrics. Tumble drying on a low heat can help soften the material. Avoid over-drying.

Insect repellent properties seem reduced.

The NosiDefence treatment is designed to last for the expected life of the garment, but it's not permanent. Follow care instructions carefully, as harsh detergents or excessive washing can degrade treatments over time. Avoid using fabric softeners, which can impact fabric performance.

Sun protection level feels lower.

The UPF rating is based on new fabric. While durable, prolonged exposure to harsh elements can eventually affect fabric integrity. Ensure the fabric is clean, as dirt can sometimes reduce UV transmission. Follow washing instructions to maintain fabric performance.
