FAQs
Are these shorts suitable for cold weather hiking?
These shorts are designed for mild to warm weather conditions due to their lightweight and breathable fabric. They offer UV protection and water repellency but lack insulation for cold temperatures.
How do I ensure the best fit?
Refer to the brand's sizing chart for accurate measurements. The part-elasticated waist offers some flexibility, but choosing the correct waist and hip measurement is crucial.
Can I wear these for activities other than hiking?
Yes, their comfort, quick-drying properties, and UV protection make them suitable for a range of outdoor activities such as walking, camping, travelling, and casual wear in warm weather.
How resistant are they to heavy rain?
The shorts feature a water-repellent finish, which is effective against light rain and splashes. For prolonged exposure to heavy rain, a waterproof outer layer would be recommended.
What is the UPF rating and what does it mean?
The UPF 50+ rating means the fabric blocks over 98% of the sun's harmful UV rays, providing excellent sun protection for your skin.
How should I wash and care for these shorts to maintain their features?
Machine wash at 30°C with similar colours, do not bleach, and tumble dry on low or line dry. Avoid fabric softeners and dry cleaning to preserve the water-repellent and UV-protective properties.
Troubleshooting
Water-repellency seems reduced.
This can occur after multiple washes. Consider using a waterproofing spray suitable for outdoor apparel to restore the finish.
Waistband feels too loose or too tight.
While part-elasticated, the fit is designed to be snug. Ensure you have selected the correct size. If slightly loose, a belt can be used with the available pockets.
Fabric feels stiff after washing.
Tumble dry on a low heat setting or line dry away from direct heat. Avoid using fabric softeners, which can impact the fabric's technical properties.
