FAQs
Are these trousers fully waterproof?
No, they are water-repellent. They can shed light rain, but they are not waterproof in heavy or sustained downpours.
Can I wear these for casual daily use?
Yes, the straight-leg cut and neutral design make them suitable for casual wear as well as hiking.
How should I wash them?
Machine wash at low temperatures using a mild detergent, preferably a technical cleaner designed for outdoor apparel.
What is the benefit of the part-elasticated waist?
It provides extra comfort and a secure fit that adjusts slightly as you move, reducing the need for constant adjustment.
Do these trousers provide sun protection?
Yes, they feature a built-in UPF 40+ rating to help protect your skin from UV rays.
Troubleshooting
Water starts soaking into the fabric instead of beading up.
The DWR finish has likely worn off; apply a DWR re-proofing spray or wash-in treatment to restore water repellency.
Zip puller is difficult to operate.
Check for grit or dirt in the zip teeth; clean with a soft brush and consider using a dry zipper lubricant if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Regatta Highton trousers remain effective, wash them at a low temperature using a technical cleaner rather than standard detergent, which can strip the DWR coating. Air drying is recommended to preserve the integrity of the synthetic fibers. Over time, the water-repellent finish will diminish; you can restore this by applying a spray-on or wash-in DWR treatment according to the manufacturer's instructions. When choosing your size, remember that the part-elasticated waist offers slight flexibility, but refer to the size guide to ensure the inseam length—available in short, regular, and long—matches your needs for an optimal straight-leg fit.
