Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Pentre Lite Hiking Shorts are designed for women seeking lightweight comfort and protection during warm-weather outdoor activities. Offering quick-drying fabric and UPF 50+ sun protection, they are ideal for hiking and trail running. A potential consideration is the part-elasticated waist, which may offer a less secure fit for some compared to a fully adjustable waistband.

FAQs
Are these shorts suitable for everyday wear?
Yes, their lightweight and comfortable design makes them suitable for casual everyday wear, especially in warmer weather.
How do I know if the size is right?
Refer to the size guide for Regatta apparel. The part-elasticated waist offers some flexibility, but ensure the waist and hip measurements are accurate for your best fit.
Can I wear these in the rain?
The shorts have a durable water-repellent finish, which will help with light rain or splashes. They are not waterproof and will not keep you dry in prolonged or heavy rainfall.
What is ISOFLEX fabric?
ISOFLEX is Regatta's own active stretch fabric, designed to be lightweight, breathable, and provide excellent freedom of movement for active pursuits.
How do I wash and care for these shorts?
Machine wash at 40°C with similar colours, do not bleach, and tumble dry on a low heat. Avoid dry cleaning and iron on a low setting.
What does UPF 50+ protection mean?
UPF 50+ means the fabric blocks over 98% of the sun's harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays, providing excellent sun protection for your skin.
Are there pockets on these shorts?
The product description does not specify pocket details. Please refer to product images or contact the retailer for specific pocket information.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel tight despite correct size
Ensure the part-elasticated waistband is not bunched up. The stretch fabric may require a brief period of wear to fully adapt to your shape.
Water repellency seems reduced
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish can degrade over time. Consider re-applying a DWR treatment suitable for outdoor apparel after several washes.
Fabric feels flimsy
These shorts are designed to be lightweight for warm weather. For very rugged activities, consider a more robust material. Ensure the shorts are not snagged on sharp objects.
