Product Information

Full details

This Regatta Anti-Insect Travel Light Long Sleeve Shirt is designed for adult males seeking versatile apparel for outdoor activities like trekking and travel. Its key benefit is protection against biting insects and UV rays, combined with quick-drying, lightweight comfort. A potential consideration is that its primary function is protection, which might mean a trade-off in breathability during extreme heat compared to highly specialized athletic wear.

FAQs

How long does the anti-insect treatment last?

The duration of the anti-insect treatment depends on the number of washes and care. While effective initially, its potency may reduce over time. Proper care as per instructions helps prolong its effectiveness.

Is the shirt waterproof?

No, the shirt is not waterproof. It is designed to be lightweight, breathable, and quick-drying, suitable for protection against insects and sun, but not heavy rain.

Can I wear this shirt in cold weather?

This shirt is lightweight and designed for active use in moderate to warm conditions. For cold weather, it can serve as a base or mid-layer, but additional insulation would be necessary.

What does UPF 50+ mean?

UPF 50+ indicates excellent protection against ultraviolet (UV) radiation. It means that only 1/50th (or less) of UV rays can penetrate the fabric, signifying a high level of sun protection.

How do I clean the shirt to maintain its features?

Machine wash on a cool or warm cycle (e.g., 30°C) with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low or air dry. Refer to the care label for specific instructions.

What is ISOFLEX active stretch fabric?

ISOFLEX active stretch fabric is a blend of polyester and elastane that offers flexibility, durability, and quick-drying properties, designed for comfortable movement during physical activities.

Troubleshooting

Shirt feels less effective against insects after multiple washes.

The anti-insect treatment's efficacy can decrease over time. Consider reapplying an insect repellent treatment suitable for clothing if needed, following product instructions.

Shirt is taking longer than expected to dry.

Ensure the washing machine's spin cycle is adequate. Check that the shirt is not overly saturated with water. Hang in a well-ventilated area, and avoid drying in direct, intense heat which can damage fabric.

Zipper on the chest pocket is stiff.

Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Avoid excessive force.
