Product Information

Full details

This Regatta Anti-Insect Travel Light shirt is designed for adult women who need protection and comfort during warm-weather activities like hiking and traveling. Its key benefit is the integrated anti-insect treatment combined with UPF 50+ sun protection, offering a dual defense. A potential consideration is that the lightweight fabric, while breathable, may not offer substantial warmth in cooler conditions.

FAQs

How long does the anti-insect treatment last?

The effectiveness of the anti-insect treatment typically lasts for a specified number of washes, usually detailed on the product's care label. Following care instructions helps maximize its lifespan.

Is the anti-insect treatment safe for skin?

Yes, the treatment is designed to be safe for skin contact when used as intended. It works by creating a barrier that deters insects.

Can I wear this shirt in cooler weather?

While the shirt is lightweight and breathable, it is primarily designed for warm climates. For cooler weather, layering with additional warmer garments would be necessary.

What does UPF 50+ mean?

UPF 50+ means the fabric blocks at least 98% of the sun's harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays, offering excellent protection against sunburn and long-term skin damage.

How do I wash the shirt to maintain its features?

Machine wash at 30°C with similar colors. Avoid bleach and high heat for drying or ironing to preserve the fabric's properties and the anti-insect treatment.

What material is the shirt made from?

The shirt is made from ISOFLEX active stretch fabric, which is 96% polyester and 4% elastane, weighing 125gsm.

Does it have a hood?

This specific model features a sun shield collar that can be raised for extra neck protection, but it does not have a hood.

Troubleshooting

Shirt feels less effective against insects after several washes.

The anti-insect treatment can fade with time. Ensure you are following the recommended washing instructions carefully. Consider reapplying an insect repellent treatment designed for fabrics if performance significantly decreases.

Fabric feels clingy after drying.

Ensure the garment is fully dry. If tumble drying, use a low heat setting. For air drying, ensure adequate ventilation. A cool iron may help if slight static persists.

Stitching appears loose.

Inspect the garment for any loose threads. Small loose threads can often be carefully trimmed with scissors. For more significant seam issues, consider professional repair.
