The Regatta Highton Over Trousers are designed for adult males seeking reliable waterproof and breathable protection during outdoor activities. Their key benefit lies in keeping you dry and comfortable in wet conditions, though their unlined construction means they are best suited as an outer layer rather than standalone thermal wear. Key features include Isotex 10000 technology, taped seams, and convenient ankle zip openings.

No, the Regatta Highton Over Trousers are unlined and designed as a waterproof shell layer to be worn over other clothing. They do not provide significant insulation on their own.
Isotex 10000 provides a balance of waterproof protection (10000mm hydrostatic head) and breathability (10000g/m2/24hrs), keeping you dry from rain while allowing perspiration vapor to escape.
Yes, they are suitable for everyday rain protection, offering good waterproofing and portability. However, their overtrouser design might be less aesthetically streamlined for urban use compared to dedicated rain pants.
Machine wash at 30°C using a mild detergent. Avoid bleach, tumble drying, and ironing. Always check the care label for specific instructions.
Taped seams mean that the stitching lines of the trousers have been sealed with waterproof tape, preventing water from leaking through the needle holes.
The two side pockets are secured with zippers, offering a good level of security for small items like keys or a phone.
This model features a part-elasticated waistband for a comfortable fit and does not appear to have belt loops.
Ensure all seams are properly taped and that the outer fabric is clean. Consider re-applying a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment to the fabric if water is soaking in. Check that the ankle zips are fully closed.
Ensure the garment is clean, as dirt and oils can clog the membrane. Wash according to care instructions. Make sure you are not wearing excessively thick layers underneath that may be overwhelming the breathability.
Utilize the full extent of the ankle zip openings. Ensure boots are not excessively bulky, or consider a slightly larger size if this is a persistent issue.
Setup: These are overtrousers, meaning they are designed to be worn over regular clothing. There is no complex setup required; simply pull them on and secure the waistband. Adjust the ankle zips as needed.
Compatibility: The Regatta Highton Over Trousers are compatible with most outdoor footwear, from light walking shoes to heavy hiking boots, due to the ankle zip openings. They pair well with waterproof jackets and other outdoor gear.
Care: Machine wash at 30°C with a mild detergent. Do not bleach, tumble dry, or iron. For best results, re-proof periodically using a suitable fabric refresher spray to maintain water repellency.
