Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Highton II Men's Long Shorts are designed for adult males seeking versatile and comfortable outdoor wear. Their key benefit lies in the ISOFLEX Active stretch fabric, offering excellent flexibility and freedom of movement, coupled with practical weather protection. A potential caveat for some users might be the regular fit, which may not suit those preferring a very loose or very snug style. These shorts feature durable water repellency, UPF 50+ sun protection, and a part-elasticated waist for a comfortable fit. Made with recycled materials, they are suitable for hiking and active days.

FAQs
What is ISOFLEX Active stretch fabric?
ISOFLEX Active stretch fabric is a performance material made from recycled polyamide and elastane. It is designed to offer excellent flexibility, durability, and comfort for active use.
How effective is the UV protection?
The shorts offer UPF 50+ UV protection, which means they block over 98% of harmful UV rays, providing significant sun protection for your legs.
Are these shorts suitable for heavy rain?
The shorts have a durable water-repellent (DWR) finish, which is effective against light rain and splashes. For prolonged exposure to heavy rain, waterproof overtrousers would be more appropriate.
Can I machine wash these shorts?
Yes, you can machine wash the shorts at 30°C with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softener and bleach.
What is the benefit of the part-elasticated waist?
The part-elasticated waist provides a more comfortable and adaptable fit compared to a fully elasticated or fixed waist, allowing for greater freedom of movement and accommodating slight variations in size.
What are the pocket features?
The shorts feature multiple pockets for general storage, plus a dedicated zipped pocket on the leg, ideal for securely carrying items like keys, a phone, or a small wallet.
Do these shorts contain recycled materials?
Yes, the ISOFLEX fabric used in these shorts is made with recycled polyamide, contributing to a more sustainable product.
Troubleshooting
Reduced water repellency
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish can diminish over time. Reapply a DWR treatment spray according to the product's instructions to restore water-repellent properties.
Waistband feels too tight/loose
The part-elasticated waist is designed for comfort. Ensure you have selected the correct size. For minor adjustments, consider wearing a belt if the waist is slightly loose.
Stains on the fabric
For fresh stains, attempt to spot clean with mild soap and water. For more stubborn stains, follow the general washing instructions, avoiding harsh chemicals that could damage the fabric or finish.

Compatibility: The Regatta Highton II shorts are designed for adult men and are suitable for a wide range of outdoor activities. They pair well with hiking boots, trail shoes, and various upper-body layers.
Care Instructions: To maintain the performance and longevity of your shorts:
- Washing: Machine wash at 30°C (86°F) using a mild detergent.
- Detergent: Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as these can degrade the water-repellent finish and fabric integrity.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang dry away from direct sunlight.
- Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low setting. A cool iron on the reverse side is recommended.
- Re-proofing: For best results and to revive water repellency, consider using a reproofing spray suitable for outdoor clothing after several washes.
