Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Leesville III men's walking shorts are designed for adult males seeking comfortable and practical attire for outdoor activities like hiking and trail adventures. Their key benefit is providing quick-drying, crease-resistant comfort with built-in UV protection. A potential caveat is that the UV protection is only effective when the fabric covers the skin, and the waist is only partially elasticated.

FAQs
What is the primary benefit of the recycled polyester fabric?
The recycled polyester fabric is lightweight, quick-drying, crease-resistant, and made from sustainable materials, contributing to environmental responsibility.
How effective is the UV protection?
The shorts offer UPF 50+ protection, which is considered excellent. However, this protection is only effective on the areas of skin that are covered by the fabric.
Can I wear these shorts in the rain?
The shorts have a long-lasting water-repellent finish, making them suitable for light showers. For heavy or prolonged rain, waterproof outer layers are recommended.
Are the pockets secure?
Yes, the shorts feature multiple zipped pockets, including front and side pockets, providing secure storage for your essentials.
How do I adjust the fit of the waist?
The shorts have a partially elasticated waist, which offers a degree of flexibility and comfort. There isn't a separate drawstring or belt system for adjustment.
What activities are these shorts best suited for?
They are ideal for warm-weather outdoor activities such as hiking, walking, trekking, camping, and general travel.
How should I wash these shorts to maintain their features?
Machine wash gently with similar colours, use mild detergent, and avoid fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low or line dry. Do not bleach.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel tight or restrictive.
Ensure you have selected the correct size. The partially elasticated waist offers some flexibility, but a proper fit is key for comfort.
Water repellency seems reduced.
Avoid using fabric softeners. You can restore water repellency by washing the shorts with a specific re-waterproofing agent designed for outdoor clothing, following the product's instructions.
Minor wrinkles after washing/drying.
While crease-resistant, some minor wrinkles may appear. Try removing the shorts from the dryer promptly or hang them to dry. A low-heat iron can smooth out any stubborn creases.
