FAQs
Are these swim shorts suitable for competitive swimming?
While the fabric is quick-drying and lightweight, they are designed more for recreational swimming, beachwear, and casual use rather than competitive racing due to their longer board short style.
What is the UPF rating, and what does it mean?
The UPF 50+ rating means the fabric provides excellent protection against ultraviolet (UV) radiation, blocking at least 98% of UV rays when worn.
Can I wear these shorts for activities other than swimming?
Yes, their comfortable, lightweight, and quick-drying nature makes them suitable for a variety of casual warm-weather activities like beach volleyball, walking, or simply relaxing outdoors.
How do I find the right size?
Refer to the size chart provided by Regatta for accurate measurements. The adjustable drawcord waist also allows for some flexibility in fit.
Are the pockets secure enough for a phone?
The shorts feature two side pockets and a security pocket within the mesh liner. The security pocket is best suited for small items like keys or cards, not typically a smartphone.
What are the care instructions for maintaining the UV protection?
Follow standard care instructions: machine wash cold, do not bleach, do not use fabric softener, and tumble dry low or air dry. Avoid ironing.
Can these shorts be coordinated with other Regatta items?
Yes, the product description mentions a 'Co-ord item: Trinton shirt,' suggesting they are designed to be part of a matching set.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel too loose or too tight
Adjust the drawcord at the waist to achieve a secure and comfortable fit. Ensure the size selected is correct for your measurements.
Fabric is not drying as quickly as expected
Ensure the shorts are not saturated with heavy detergents. Rinse thoroughly after use, especially in saltwater or chlorinated pools, and allow them to air dry away from direct heat.
Discomfort from the mesh liner
The mesh liner is designed for support. If discomfort persists, consider wearing seamless underwear underneath, though this may affect drying time.
Color fading
Wash in cold water, use mild detergent, and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when not wearing them. Air drying is recommended.
