FAQs

Are these shorts suitable for everyday wear?

Yes, the comfortable fit and durable material make them suitable for everyday activities as well as outdoor adventures.

How do I know if the size 10 is correct?

Refer to the Regatta sizing chart for children's UK sizes. Generally, size 10 years is suitable for children around that age, but checking measurements against the chart is recommended.

Can these shorts be worn in cold weather?

These shorts are lightweight and designed for warmer weather or as a layer. For cold weather, layering with thermal wear underneath would be necessary.

What does UPF 50+ mean?

UPF 50+ indicates that the fabric provides 'Excellent' protection against ultraviolet (UV) radiation, blocking over 98% of UV rays.

How many pockets do the shorts have in total?

The shorts have a total of five pockets: two side pockets, two cargo pockets with flap closures, and one back pocket with a zip.

Is the water repellency permanent?

The DWR finish provides water repellency which can diminish with wear and washing. It can be restored by applying a suitable DWR treatment.

What is the main advantage of using recycled polyester?

Using recycled polyester reduces reliance on virgin resources, decreases waste, and lowers the environmental impact associated with textile production.

Troubleshooting

Shorts feel stiff after washing

Ensure you are following the care instructions, particularly regarding the maximum wash temperature and avoiding harsh detergents. A low-heat tumble dry can help soften the fabric.

Water repellency seems reduced

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish can wear off over time. Re-apply a suitable DWR treatment after washing according to the product's instructions to restore water-repellency.

Zipper on back pocket is difficult to use

Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. If it catches on fabric, carefully free the fabric. A small amount of graphite from a pencil rubbed on the teeth can help lubricate it.
