Product Information
Full details
These Regatta Highton Zip Off Walking Trousers are designed for adventurous adults seeking versatile outdoor wear. Their key benefit is the ability to convert from trousers to shorts, adapting to changing weather conditions. A potential caveat is the material, which while lightweight, may offer less insulation in very cold environments. The trousers feature Isoflex stretch fabric for ease of movement, water repellency, and UPF 40+ sun protection, making them suitable for various weather scenarios. Additional features include a part-elasticated waistband for comfort and multiple pockets, including secure zipped ones.

FAQs
How do I convert the trousers to shorts?
To convert the trousers to shorts, locate the zippers at the thigh area. Ensure the legs are clean, then carefully unzip each leg at the designated point. Remove the lower leg sections.
What is Isoflex fabric?
Isoflex is a lightweight, durable, and stretchable fabric developed by Regatta, designed to offer comfort and freedom of movement during outdoor activities while providing weather resistance.
How effective is the water repellency?
The trousers feature a water-repellent finish, which is effective against light rain or splashes. It is not designed for prolonged exposure to heavy downpours, as it is not fully waterproof.
Can these trousers be worn in hot weather?
Yes, the lightweight nature of the fabric and the ability to convert them into shorts make them suitable for warm weather conditions.
What sizes are available?
These trousers are available in Short, Regular, and Long leg lengths. Waist sizes vary by specific product listing.
Are the zipped pockets deep enough for a smartphone?
The zipped side pockets are designed to securely hold essentials. For specific dimensions, refer to detailed product specifications or measure the pocket opening.
Troubleshooting
Zippers for leg removal are stiff or difficult to use.
Ensure the zippers are clean and free of debris. A small amount of silicone-based lubricant or wax can help smooth operation. Avoid forcing the zippers.
Water repellency seems reduced after washing.
Reapply a suitable DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment after washing, following the product's instructions. Avoid using fabric conditioners, as they can affect the fabric's performance.
Waistband feels too tight or too loose.
The part-elasticated waistband offers some flexibility. Ensure you have selected the correct size. For minor adjustments, consider wearing a belt, though the design aims for comfort without one.
