FAQs

What is NosiDefence?

NosiDefence is an integrated fabric technology that provides built-in repellency against biting insects. It is designed to be durable and long-lasting throughout the life of the garment.

How does Solarshield protect me?

Solarshield provides UPF 50+ sun protection, meaning it blocks at least 98% of harmful UV rays. This helps to protect your skin from sun damage during prolonged outdoor exposure.

Is this shirt suitable for very hot weather?

The shirt is made from a breathable polycotton blend and features roll-up sleeves for ventilation, making it suitable for warm weather. However, for extreme heat, a lighter, pure synthetic fabric might offer better moisture-wicking.

Can I wash this shirt with regular laundry?

Yes, you can wash it with similar colours using a warm machine wash. However, avoid bleach and fabric softeners, as these can affect the fabric's protective treatments.

What does the 'relaxed fit' mean?

Relaxed fit indicates a looser cut than a regular or slim fit, providing more room for movement and comfort without being baggy.

How do I know if the anti-insect treatment is still working?

The NosiDefence treatment is integrated into the fabric and is designed to last. You should notice its effectiveness through reduced insect activity around the garment. Following care instructions will help maintain its longevity.

What kind of material is this shirt made from?

The shirt is made from a polycotton blend, consisting of 65% recycled polyester and 35% recycled cotton.

Troubleshooting

Shirt feels stiff after washing.

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners, which can degrade fabric treatments. Tumble drying on low heat may help restore softness.

Insect repellent effect seems reduced.

The NosiDefence treatment is durable, but avoid using harsh chemicals or excessive heat. Proper washing and drying as per the care label should maintain effectiveness.

Roll-up sleeves won't stay secured.

Ensure the button tab is fully engaged. If the fabric has become excessively worn, the elasticity of the tab may be reduced.

Zipper on secure pocket is difficult to use.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. A small amount of wax or silicone lubricant can help if it remains stiff.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Effective insect and sun protection built into the fabric.
  • Made with recycled materials for a more sustainable choice.
  • Comfortable relaxed fit for all-day wear.
  • Multiple secure pockets for convenient storage.
  • Adaptable design with roll-up sleeves for changing conditions.

Cons

  • The relaxed fit might be too loose for individuals preferring a slim cut.
  • Polycotton blend may not offer the same moisture-wicking performance as pure synthetics.
  • Specific care instructions for the anti-insect treatment may be required.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This shirt requires no specific setup and is ready to wear out of the packaging. It is compatible with standard clothing care practices. To maintain the effectiveness of the fabric technologies, such as NosiDefence and Solarshield, follow these care instructions:

  1. Washing: Machine wash warm (30°C) with similar colours.
  2. Bleaching: Do not bleach.
  3. Drying: Tumble dry on low or line dry in the shade.
  4. Ironing: Iron on a medium heat setting.
  5. Dry Cleaning: Do not dry clean.
  6. Insect Repellency: The anti-insect treatment is designed to last for the lifetime of the garment, but avoiding harsh detergents and high-heat drying can help prolong its efficacy. Always check the care label inside the garment for the most accurate instructions.
