Regatta Leesville III Walking Shorts - Blue - Size: 40

The lightweight polyester fabric is designed for comfort in warm weather. While quick-drying and offering UV protection, some individuals may prefer natural fibers for extreme heat. They are ideal for active use where breathability is needed.

Refer to the sizing guide for Regatta products. The part-elasticated waist offers some flexibility, but ensure the shorts fit comfortably around your hips and upper thighs without being restrictive.

While the fabric is quick-drying and water-repellent, these shorts are not designed as swimwear. They are intended for hiking and general outdoor activities.

The depth of the pockets can vary slightly, but the description mentions ample storage with front and side zipped pockets. It is recommended to check specific pocket dimensions if carrying a larger phone model.

The durable water-repellent (DWR) finish is designed to last through normal wear and washing cycles. Its effectiveness may decrease over time, but can often be restored with appropriate re-proofing treatments.

UPF 50+ stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor 50+. It indicates that the fabric blocks more than 98% of the sun's harmful UV radiation, offering excellent sun protection.

The product description states they are 'Made from recycled materials.' This typically means a significant portion of the fabric is recycled polyester, contributing to sustainability.

Adjust the fit as much as possible with the part-elasticated waist. For a significantly different fit, consider trying a different size or a model with a full elasticated or adjustable waistband.

Water repellency can diminish over time. Consider using a re-proofing spray specifically designed for outdoor apparel, following the product's instructions.

While durable, polyester can be prone to snagging on rough surfaces. Be mindful of where you are sitting or brushing against. If minor pilling occurs, a fabric shaver can be used carefully.
