FAQs
What is ISOFLEX technology?
ISOFLEX is Regatta's active stretch fabric technology designed to provide exceptional flexibility, support, and freedom of movement, making it ideal for high-energy activities and ensuring comfort throughout your day.
Are these leggings waterproof?
The Regatta Monira Hiking Leggings feature a Durable Water-Repellent (DWR) finish, which means they will shed light rain and splashes. They are not fully waterproof, so for heavy or prolonged rain, we recommend wearing waterproof overtrousers.
Can I wear these leggings in cold weather?
These leggings offer good breathability and light weather protection. For cold weather, they are best used as a base layer or paired with additional insulating layers. They do not provide significant thermal insulation on their own.
What does UPF 50+ mean?
UPF 50+ stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor 50 or greater. This means the fabric blocks 98% or more of harmful UVA and UVB rays, offering excellent sun protection for your skin during outdoor exposure.
How should I wash these leggings to maintain their features?
Machine wash cold (30°C) with similar colors, preferably inside out. Do not use bleach or fabric softeners, as these can damage the DWR finish and fabric properties. Line dry to best preserve their quality.
Is the leg pocket large enough for a smartphone?
Yes, the convenient leg pocket is designed to securely hold small essentials, including most standard-sized smartphones, allowing for easy access while on the move.
Troubleshooting
Leggings feel too tight or restrictive during movement.
The ISOFLEX fabric is designed for flexibility. If you experience restriction, double-check your size against the Regatta sizing guide. If between sizes, consider sizing up for more comfort and range of motion.
Water repellency seems to be diminishing, and water is soaking into the fabric.
The Durable Water-Repellent (DWR) finish can wear off with extended use and washing. Ensure you are washing according to care instructions (avoiding fabric softener). You can restore the DWR by applying a suitable DWR re-treatment product after washing, available at outdoor retailers.
The leggings feel damp or don't dry as quickly as expected after heavy exertion or light rain.
While quick-drying and water-repellent, these leggings are not designed to be fully waterproof for prolonged heavy downpours. For very heavy rain, consider pairing them with waterproof overtrousers. For quick drying after sweating, ensure adequate air circulation and avoid layering too many non-breathable items over them.

These leggings require no special setup and are ready to wear straight out of the package.

For colder conditions, they can be easily layered under waterproof trousers or over thermal base layers for added warmth. Always ensure you select the correct size for optimal comfort and performance.
Care Instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash cold (30°C) with similar colors. It is recommended to wash inside out.
- Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can impair the fabric's wicking and water-repellent properties.
- Bleaching: Do not bleach.
- Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or, ideally, line dry to preserve the DWR finish and fabric elasticity. Avoid direct sunlight if line drying for extended periods.
- Ironing: Do not iron.
- Dry Cleaning: Do not dry clean.
- DWR Re-treatment: Over time, the DWR finish may wear off. If you notice water no longer beads, you can restore repellency with a spray-on or wash-in DWR treatment product designed for technical apparel.
