FAQs
What material are the Regatta Professional Action Shorts made from?
The shorts are made from a durable polycotton fabric, which is a blend of polyester and cotton, enhancing both durability and water repellency.
Are these shorts suitable for heavy rain?
The shorts feature a water-repellent finish, which is effective against light moisture and splashes. They are not designed for prolonged exposure to heavy rain and may not keep you completely dry in such conditions.
How do I ensure a good fit?
The shorts have a part-elasticated waist and belt loops, allowing for adjustment. It is recommended to check the size guide and measure your waist for the best fit.
How many pockets do the shorts have, and are they secure?
The shorts feature two large front pockets with hem bellows and two rear pockets. One of the rear pockets includes a concealed zip for securing smaller personal items.
Can I machine wash these shorts?
Yes, you can machine wash the shorts at a maximum of 40°C (104°F). Avoid using bleach and tumble drying on high heat.
What is the best way to maintain the water-repellent feature?
Regular washing according to care instructions helps maintain the fabric. For enhanced or restored water repellency, consider using a fabric waterproofing spray specifically designed for outdoor apparel after several washes.
Are these shorts suitable for cold weather?
These shorts are designed for general use and offer basic protection. They do not provide significant insulation and may not be sufficient for very cold weather conditions. Layering may be necessary.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel tight or loose after initial wear.
Adjust the fit using the part-elasticated waistband and belt loops. Ensure the correct size was selected based on waist measurements.
Water repellency appears reduced.
Ensure the shorts are clean. Consider applying a fabric waterproofing spray suitable for polyester blends following the product's instructions.
Pockets seem insufficient for specific items.
While designed for ample storage, consider using a separate tool belt or pouch for oversized items. Ensure items are placed securely in the zipped pocket for safety.
Fabric shows signs of wear prematurely.
Avoid abrasive contact with rough surfaces. Follow the recommended washing and drying procedures to minimize fabric stress.
