FAQs

What type of activities is this shirt best suited for?

This shirt is ideal for warm-weather outdoor activities such as hiking, traveling, and long days on the trail where protection from insects and the sun is needed.

How does the anti-insect treatment work?

The fabric is treated with a special finish that helps to deter biting insects, reducing the likelihood of uncomfortable bites.

What is the UPF rating of this shirt?

The shirt offers a UPF (Ultraviolet Protection Factor) of 50+, providing excellent protection against harmful UV rays.

Is the fabric stretchy?

Yes, the shirt is made from ISOFLEX active stretch fabric, which is 96% polyester and 4% elastane, allowing for greater freedom of movement.

How should I care for the shirt to maintain its features?

Machine wash at 40°C with similar colours, do not bleach, and tumble dry on a low setting. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can reduce the effectiveness of the anti-insect treatment.

What material is the shirt made from?

Troubleshooting

Shirt feels warm in very high temperatures

While lightweight, the polyester blend may retain heat in extreme humidity. Consider wearing a lighter base layer underneath or ensuring good ventilation by unzipping if applicable to the garment style (though this specific model has a standard collar).

Anti-insect treatment seems less effective after several washes

The effectiveness of treatments can diminish over time. Ensure you are following care instructions meticulously and avoiding fabric softeners. For prolonged trips, consider bringing an insect repellent spray as a supplementary measure.

Zipped pocket feels restrictive

The zipped chest pocket is designed for small, lightweight items. Avoid overstuffing it to maintain comfort and ensure the zipper functions smoothly.
