FAQs
Are these leggings suitable for all types of weather?
They are designed with a Durable Water Repellent finish for light rain and UPF 50+ for sun protection, making them ideal for changeable conditions. For heavy rain, an additional waterproof outer layer would be recommended.
What is ISOFLEX technology?
ISOFLEX is a fabric technology that provides exceptional active stretch properties, ensuring full mobility, comfort, and support during physical activities.
Can I use these for swimming or water sports?
While they have a water-repellent finish and quick-dry properties, they are not designed as swimwear. Prolonged immersion might compromise their fit and material integrity over time.
How much UV protection do they offer?
The fabric is rated at UPF 50+, offering excellent protection against harmful UVA and UVB rays during outdoor exposure.
Is the leg pocket large enough for a smartphone?
The convenient leg pocket is designed for small essentials. Most standard-sized smartphones should fit, but very large or 'plus' sized phones might be a tight fit or not fit at all.
Do these leggings have compression?
The ISOFLEX active stretch fabric offers support and flexibility. While not advertised as full compression leggings, they provide a supportive, form-fitting silhouette due to the stretch material and shaped panelling.
What material are these leggings made from?
They are made from 90% Polyester and 10% Elastane, providing a blend of durability, stretch, and quick-drying properties.
Troubleshooting
Water repellency seems to be diminishing.
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish can wear off over time. Wash the leggings according to care instructions, then consider applying a wash-in or spray-on DWR restorative product designed for technical outdoor apparel.
Leggings feel too warm or less breathable than expected.
While the fabric is quick-drying, it's a polyester blend. For very hot and humid conditions, ensure you're hydrating well. For general use, the quick-dry feature should manage moisture effectively. Consider lighter layers for other clothing if overall warmth is an issue.
Leggings roll down at the waist during activity.
Ensure the drawcord adjuster is tightened appropriately for a secure fit. The high-waist design is meant to provide good coverage, but proper adjustment is key for preventing slippage during dynamic movements.

Care:
To maintain the performance and longevity of your Regatta Monira Hiking Leggings:
- Machine wash cold with like colors.
- Do not bleach.
- Tumble dry low or hang dry to preserve the DWR finish and fabric integrity.
- Do not iron.
- Do not dry clean.
- Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can degrade the water-repellent treatment and wicking properties.
- If the water repellency decreases over time, you can refresh it with a wash-in or spray-on DWR treatment suitable for technical fabrics.
