Full details
The Regatta Anti-Insect Travel Long Sleeve Shirt is designed for adult males who enjoy outdoor activities like trekking and travel. Its key benefit is comprehensive protection against both sun and insects, allowing for extended periods outdoors with comfort. A potential caveat is that while lightweight, it is a long-sleeved garment, which may feel warm in very high temperatures. This shirt is crafted from polyester, featuring active stretch for ease of movement, a sun-shield collar, and roll-up sleeves for adaptable coverage. It offers UPF 50+ sun protection and is treated with an anti-insect finish.

FAQs
How effective is the anti-insect treatment?
The treatment is designed to repel common biting insects. Its effectiveness can vary depending on the specific insect species, environmental conditions, and the number of washes the garment has undergone. Follow care instructions to maintain its efficacy.
Can I wear this shirt in very hot weather?
The shirt is lightweight and quick-drying, but being long-sleeved, it might feel warm in extremely high temperatures. You can roll up the sleeves and adjust the collar for better ventilation, but for peak heat, lighter short-sleeved options might be more comfortable.
How should I wash the shirt to preserve the anti-insect treatment?
Wash at a low temperature, do not bleach, and tumble dry on low heat. Avoid harsh detergents and dry cleaning, as these can degrade the treatment. Washing with similar colors is also recommended.
What does UPF 50+ mean?
UPF 50+ means the fabric provides excellent protection against ultraviolet (UV) radiation, blocking at least 98% of UV rays when worn. This helps prevent sunburn and long-term skin damage.
Is the stretch feature noticeable when wearing it?
Yes, the active stretch fabric is designed to move with your body, offering a comfortable fit and preventing restriction during physical activities like hiking or reaching.
What sizes are available?
This shirt is available in adult male sizes ranging from S to XXXL.
Can I iron this shirt?
Yes, you can iron the shirt on a cool setting if needed.
Troubleshooting
Shirt feels warm
Roll up the sleeves and adjust the collar to allow for more airflow. Consider wearing in cooler conditions or during shaded parts of your activity.
Insect repellent effect seems reduced
Ensure you are following the care instructions, as excessive washing or harsh detergents can degrade the treatment. Consider reapplying a suitable insect repellent if necessary, ensuring compatibility with the fabric.
Fabric clinging or less breathable
Ensure the garment is not overly tight. Proper fit is key for breathability. If the issue persists, consider wearing a moisture-wicking base layer underneath in very humid conditions.
