FAQs
Are these trousers suitable for winter hiking?
Yes, they provide excellent wind and rain protection, though you may want to layer them over thermal leggings for added insulation in cold temperatures.
Can I put these in the tumble dryer?
It is generally recommended to air dry them to preserve the integrity of the technical fabric and seams.
What does ISOTEX 20000 mean?
It indicates a high hydrostatic head rating of 20,000mm, meaning the fabric is highly waterproof and capable of withstanding heavy, persistent rain.
Do these trousers come with a belt?
The trousers feature adjustable elements, but it is recommended to check the specific product packaging if an integrated belt is included with your specific SKU.
Are they noisy when walking?
Unlike traditional, stiff waterproof shells, the stretch fabric used in the Highton line is designed to be quieter and more comfortable during movement.
Troubleshooting
Water is soaking into the fabric instead of beading off
The DWR coating has likely worn off. Wash the trousers with a technical cleaner and re-apply a spray-on or wash-in DWR treatment.
Feeling damp inside the trousers
Check if you are over-exerting or wearing non-breathable layers underneath. Ensure the trousers are not being worn in temperatures exceeding their breathable capacity.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Regatta Highton Trousers maintain their waterproof integrity, follow these guidelines. Always close all pockets and fasteners before washing to prevent damage. Use a technical cleaner specifically designed for waterproof gear rather than standard laundry detergent, as standard soap can clog the breathable pores of the membrane. Do not use fabric softeners or bleach. Air dry the trousers away from direct heat sources to prevent the seams or fabric coating from degrading. Periodically inspect the seams and re-apply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray if you notice water no longer beads off the surface.
