FAQs
Are these trousers waterproof?
They feature a water-repellent finish, which is excellent for light rain and damp conditions, but they are not fully waterproof and should not be considered a substitute for rain pants in heavy downpours.
Does the fabric provide sun protection?
Yes, these trousers come with a UPF rating of 50+, which helps block harmful UV rays during sunny hikes.
Can I use these for winter hiking?
They are designed primarily for agility in 3-season weather. For winter, you may need to layer thermals underneath, or opt for a dedicated winter-lined version.
How do I choose the right leg length?
Regatta offers short, regular, and long lengths. Measure your inside leg from the crotch to the floor to determine which option best suits your stature.
Are the pockets deep enough for a smartphone?
The zipped side pockets are designed to secure common hiking essentials, including most modern smartphones, ensuring they stay safe while climbing or scrambling.
Troubleshooting
Water is soaking into the fabric rather than beading off
The DWR finish has likely worn off. Wash the trousers and tumble dry on low heat to reactivate, or apply a spray-on DWR restorer.
Waist feels too loose or tight
The part-elasticated waist allows for some flexibility; ensure the size selected matches your waist measurement accurately as there is no internal drawstring.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these trousers feature a part-elasticated waist, they are designed to provide a standard fit without needing a restrictive belt. To maintain the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) performance, follow these care steps:
- Washing: Machine wash on a cool setting with technical gear detergent.
- Avoid Softeners: Never use fabric softeners as they clog the breathability and degrade the DWR coating.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible. If the DWR performance begins to fail, tumble dry on a low heat setting to help reactivate the finish.
- Storage: Ensure they are completely dry before storing in a closet to prevent fabric degradation.
