Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Leesville III shorts are designed for active men who need reliable, lightweight apparel for hiking, travel, or everyday outdoor use. These polyester shorts offer the key benefit of a quick-dry, crease-resistant fabric with integrated UPF 50+ sun protection, making them ideal for long days in varying weather conditions. While they provide excellent utility and storage, users should note that the regular fit is tailored specifically for a standard silhouette, which may not suit those who prefer a highly slim or overly baggy aesthetic.

FAQs
Are these shorts suitable for swimming?
While they feature a quick-dry finish, they are designed as hiking and travel shorts rather than dedicated swimwear.
How should I measure my waist for these shorts?
Measure around your natural waistline, typically where you usually wear your trousers, to ensure the best fit against the provided sizing.
Do the shorts stretch?
The material itself is a woven polyester; however, the part-elasticated waistband provides natural give for added comfort.
Can I iron these shorts?
They are designed to be crease-resistant. If ironing is necessary, use the lowest temperature setting to avoid damaging the synthetic fabric.
What does UPF 50+ mean?
It means the fabric blocks 98% of the sun's UVA and UVB rays, providing a high level of protection for your skin.
Troubleshooting
Water-repellent finish is no longer working.
The DWR coating may have worn off through frequent washing; consider using a specialized DWR-refreshing spray recommended for synthetic outdoor fabrics.
Zippers are feeling stiff or difficult to open.
Clean any dirt or sand from the zipper teeth using a soft brush, then run a bar of soap or a pencil lead along the teeth to provide dry lubrication.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Quick-drying polyester material is ideal for travel and hiking
- Crease-resistant fabric maintains a tidy appearance even after packing
- Integrated UPF 50+ protection for sunny environments
- Secure zipped thigh pockets prevent accidental loss of items
- Part-elasticated waistband provides extra comfort during movement
Cons
- Synthetic material may lack the breathability of natural fibers in extreme humidity
- Regular fit may feel too loose for users preferring slim-cut activewear
- Requires careful adherence to washing instructions to maintain the water-repellent finish
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Regatta Leesville III shorts, follow these guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle. Avoid using heavy detergents or fabric softeners, as these can strip the durable water-repellent (DWR) finish.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible. Hang them in a well-ventilated area away from direct, high-heat sources to maintain the integrity of the synthetic fibers.
- Storage: Utilize the belt loops if you prefer a tighter, more secure fit around the waist, as the part-elasticated waist is designed for comfort but may relax over time.
- Maintenance: Periodically check the zip closures on the thigh pockets to ensure no debris is trapped in the teeth, which can cause the zippers to stick.
