Full details
These Regatta Shorebay II men's cargo shorts are designed for adult males seeking comfortable and practical summer wear, particularly for holidays. Their key benefit is the combination of a super-soft, breathable cotton twill fabric with excellent sun protection (UPF 50+). A minor caveat is that they are specifically designed for warm weather and may not be suitable for cooler climates. Key features include garment-washed cotton twill, multiple pockets for storage, and UV protection.

FAQs
What is UPF 50+ protection?
UPF 50+ stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor. A UPF rating of 50+ means the fabric blocks over 98% of the sun's harmful UV rays, providing excellent sun protection.
How do I know if the size 44 waist will fit me?
It's recommended to consult the specific size chart provided by Regatta for their shorts. Generally, a UK size 44 waist corresponds to a specific measurement in inches or centimeters. Measure your waistline to compare.
Can these shorts be worn for swimming?
While the fabric is breathable and quick-drying for its type, these shorts are primarily designed as casual wear and not as dedicated swimwear. They are suitable for casual beach activities but may not perform optimally as swimwear.
Are these shorts suitable for very hot weather?
Yes, the breathable cotton twill fabric is designed to be comfortable in warm and hot weather conditions.
How many pockets do these shorts have?
The product description mentions 'multiple pockets', which typically includes standard side pockets and cargo-style pockets on the legs. Specific counts can vary, but expect at least 4-6 pockets.
What is the main advantage of the garment wash?
The garment wash process pre-shrinks the fabric and gives it a softer, more comfortable, and slightly faded 'worn-in' feel right from the first wear.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel stiff after washing
Ensure you are using a fabric softener if desired, and consider line drying for a softer finish. The garment wash aims for softness, so stiffness may indicate over-drying.
Color fades quickly
Wash inside out in cold water and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying. Stick to the recommended low-temperature wash.
Pockets feel restrictive
Ensure items are not overstuffed. The pocket design is intended for practicality; excessive bulk can affect comfort.
