Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Leesville III shorts are engineered for outdoor enthusiasts and hikers who prioritize functionality and durability in varying weather conditions. These lightweight, polyester shorts offer a significant advantage through their crease-resistant fabric and integrated UPF 50+ sun protection, ensuring comfort during long days on the trail. While these shorts excel in performance and utility, users should note that the technical polyester material may not offer the same soft, casual feel as cotton alternatives, making them best suited for active use rather than lounging.

FAQs
Are these shorts suitable for swimming?
While the fabric is quick-drying, they are designed as hiking shorts and do not contain a mesh inner liner.
Does the waistband have much stretch?
The waist is part-elasticated, providing a comfortable amount of "give" for movement without being overly loose.
What is the UPF 50+ rating?
This means the fabric blocks 98% of the sun's UV rays, providing excellent protection against sun damage.
Are they true to size?
Yes, they follow standard UK sizing; use the part-elasticated waist to help fine-tune the fit.
Can I iron these shorts?
They are naturally crease-resistant, but if ironing is needed, use a low heat setting to avoid damaging the synthetic polyester fibers.
Troubleshooting
Water repellency seems to have worn off
Wash the garment to remove dirt/oils and apply a fresh DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray or wash-in treatment.
Zipper feels stiff or stuck
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper teeth and clean any debris from the track using a soft brush.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These shorts feature a traditional button and zip fly fastening paired with integrated belt loops, allowing you to use your preferred outdoor belt for a secure fit.
Care Instructions:
- Machine wash on a gentle cycle with like colors.
- Avoid using heavy fabric softeners as they can degrade the water-repellent treatment.
- Air dry whenever possible to preserve the fabric's technical integrity and the longevity of the synthetic fibers.
- If the water-repellent efficacy decreases, consider using a wash-in waterproofing treatment specifically designed for technical synthetic outdoor apparel.
