FAQs

Are these shorts suitable for hiking?

Yes, the Regatta Shorebay II Cargo Shorts are suitable for light hiking in warm weather due to their breathable cotton fabric and comfortable fit. The UPF 50+ protection is also beneficial for sunny trails.

How do I determine my correct waist size?

Refer to standard men's UK sizing charts for waist measurements. The product information specifies a UK waist size of 42 for this particular variant.

Can I wear these shorts in the water?

While the cotton fabric can dry relatively quickly, these shorts are not specifically designed as swimwear. They are best suited for casual wear and light activities near water.

What is UPF 50+ protection?

UPF 50+ stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor 50+. It means the fabric blocks approximately 98% of the sun's harmful UV rays, providing excellent sun protection.

Do the pockets have closures like zippers or buttons?

The description mentions 'functional pockets' without specifying closures. Typically, cargo shorts feature open pockets or flap pockets, but check specific product images or details if secure closure is essential.

Are these shorts machine washable?

Yes, the shorts are machine washable at 30°C (86°F) with similar colours, following the care instructions provided.

Troubleshooting

Shorts feel stiff after washing

Ensure you are using the recommended fabric softener if desired, and tumble dry on a low setting. Avoid over-drying.

Colour fading

Wash inside out with similar colours and avoid direct sunlight during drying. Use a detergent suitable for coloured fabrics.

Fit is too loose

Utilize the belt loops to cinch the waist with a belt for a more secure and tailored fit. Consider the measurements before purchasing if a very specific fit is desired.
