FAQs

Are these trousers waterproof?

They feature a Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish, which makes them water-repellent for light rain, but they are not fully waterproof like a dedicated overtrouser.

Can I machine wash these?

Yes, they are machine washable. We recommend following the garment care label and avoiding aggressive fabric softeners.

What is Isoflex fabric?

Isoflex is Regatta’s proprietary fabric technology that combines durability, water repellency, and high-stretch performance for active outdoor use.

Do these provide sun protection?

Yes, the fabric has a UPF 50+ rating, blocking a high percentage of harmful UV rays.

Are these suitable for winter hiking?

They are designed for active, warmer, or transitional weather. For sub-zero winter temperatures, you may need thermal base layers underneath.

What is the material composition?

The trousers are made from a blend of 94% polyamide and 6% elastane.

Troubleshooting

Water no longer beading on the surface of the fabric

The DWR finish may be wearing off. Clean the trousers and apply a specialized technical fabric re-proofer spray or wash-in treatment.

Feeling restricted during high-stepping movements

Ensure the part-elasticated waist is sitting correctly on your hips and consider if a different leg length (Short/Regular/Long) would provide better articulation for your frame.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent freedom of movement due to high-stretch Isoflex material
  • Quick-drying fabric is ideal for multi-day trips or humid climates
  • UPF 50+ rating provides significant sun protection
  • Secure zipped pockets protect valuables during active use
  • Water-repellent finish handles light rain effectively

Cons

  • Not intended for extreme winter conditions or heavy downpours
  • Water-repellent coating may require re-application over time
  • Specific waist sizing requires accurate measurement for the best fit

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure longevity, the Highton Trousers should be washed in a standard machine cycle. Due to the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish, it is recommended to avoid heavy fabric softeners, as these can strip the coating over time. The trousers are compatible with standard hiking boots and base layers. Because they feature a part-elasticated waist, ensure you choose the size that corresponds to your standard measurements for the most comfortable fit across the hips and midsection. For those trekking in very wet, cold environments, these can be layered underneath a waterproof shell trouser.
