FAQs

What does UPF 50+ mean?

UPF 50+ means the fabric will block over 98% of the sun's harmful UV rays (both UVA and UVB), providing excellent protection.

How does the anti-insect treatment work?

The Nosi Defence technology is integrated into the fabric's fibers, creating a barrier that repels insects like mosquitos and midges.

Is the shirt waterproof?

No, the shirt is not designed to be waterproof. It is breathable and offers sun and insect protection, but not rain protection.

Can I wear this shirt in very hot weather?

Yes, the polycotton blend is breathable, and the relaxed fit allows for air circulation. The roll-up sleeves also help with temperature management.

How long does the anti-insect treatment last?

The Nosi Defence treatment is durable and designed to last for the lifetime of the garment when properly cared for, typically through numerous washes.

What sizes are available?

This specific product is listed as size M, but the Craghoppers Shirt Kiwi II is available in a range of adult sizes, from S to 3XL, and in various colors.

What are the washing instructions?

Machine washable on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Wash with similar colors, tumble dry on low, and iron on a low setting if needed. Avoid bleach and dry cleaning.

Troubleshooting

Shirt feels stiff after washing

This can sometimes occur with technical fabrics. Ensure you are using a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners, which can degrade performance treatments. A low tumble dry can help soften the fabric.

Insect repellent effect seems reduced

The Nosi Defence treatment is designed to last for a significant number of washes, but effectiveness may diminish over time with extensive laundering. Follow care instructions carefully to maximize longevity. Consider re-applying an appropriate insect repellent if direct protection is needed.

Sun protection feels less effective

The UPF 50+ rating is inherent to the fabric weave and treatment. Ensure the shirt is not stretched excessively, as this can reduce coverage. Regular washing with mild detergent, as per care instructions, helps maintain the fabric's integrity and UPF rating.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Offers excellent UPF 50+ sun protection.
  • Incorporates effective anti-insect treatment.
  • Made from a significant portion of recycled materials.
  • Versatile design with roll-up sleeves and multiple pockets.
  • Comfortable relaxed fit for extended wear.

Cons

  • Relaxed fit may be too loose for some preferences.
  • Primary color family is limited.
  • Care instructions may require specific attention due to fabric treatments.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This shirt requires no setup. It is designed for direct wear and use. Compatibility is broad, suitable for adult wear across various outdoor activities. Care instructions are important to maintain the fabric's protective qualities:

  • Washing: Machine washable on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Wash with similar colors.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or hang to dry. Avoid direct high heat which could damage fabric treatments.
  • Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low setting. Avoid ironing directly over any printed logos or treatment areas.
  • Special Care: Do not bleach or dry clean, as these processes can compromise the anti-insect and UV protection technologies.
