FAQs
What is Isoflex fabric?
Isoflex is a Regatta fabric technology designed to offer excellent stretch, freedom of movement, and durability, making it ideal for active outdoor wear.
Are these shorts fully waterproof?
No, the shorts feature a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish, which makes them water-resistant. They will repel light rain and splashes but are not designed for prolonged exposure to heavy downpours.
How should I clean the shorts?
Machine wash at 30°C with similar colours using a mild liquid detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach. Tumble dry on low heat or hang to dry.
Can I wear these in cold weather?
These shorts are primarily designed for flexibility and comfort in active conditions. For cold weather, layering with thermal base layers underneath would be recommended.
What does the part-elasticated waistband do?
The part-elasticated waistband provides a more comfortable and adaptable fit, conforming to your body shape and allowing for movement without restriction.
How often should I re-proof the DWR finish?
The frequency depends on usage and washing. It's generally recommended to re-proof when you notice water no longer beads up effectively on the fabric surface, typically after several washes or significant wear.
Troubleshooting
Water repellency seems reduced.
The DWR finish may need re-application. Clean the shorts thoroughly and use a specialized DWR re-proofing spray or wash-in treatment according to the product instructions.
Shorts feel tight or restrictive.
Ensure you have selected the correct size. If the fit is still not ideal, consider if the waistband needs adjustment using a belt, or if a different size would be more comfortable for your specific activity.
Fabric feels stiff after washing.
Avoid using fabric softener, which can degrade the fabric's properties and the DWR finish. Re-tumble dry on a low heat setting if the care label allows, which can help soften the fabric.
