Product Overview
The Regatta Professional RG366 Infiltrate stretch holster shorts are a sophisticated solution for professionals who require both high mobility and significant utility during warmer weather. Constructed from a specialised polyester woven stretch softshell fabric, these shorts are engineered to move with the wearer, eliminating the restriction often found in traditional heavy-duty workwear. The addition of a water-repellent finish ensures that unexpected showers or workplace splashes do not compromise your comfort, making them a versatile choice for the unpredictable British climate.
Key Features
- Stretch Softshell Fabric: The 100% polyester weave provides excellent flexibility, allowing for a full range of movement when climbing ladders or working in cramped spaces.
- Detachable Holster Pockets: These offer versatile storage for tools and fixings, allowing you to remove them when they are not required for specific tasks.
- Shaped High Back Waistband: Designed to provide additional coverage and comfort, ensuring the shorts remain securely in place during active movement.
- Reinforced Crotch Seam: Essential for longevity, this reinforcement prevents failure at a common stress point, extending the life of the garment significantly.
- Water-Repellent Finish: A technical coating that encourages water to bead off the surface, keeping the fabric dry and lightweight during light rain.
Design & Performance
The design philosophy behind the Infiltrate shorts focuses on the 'active' professional. By utilizing a lightweight softshell fabric rather than a rigid canvas, Regatta has created a garment that feels more like high-performance outdoor gear while retaining the ruggedness needed for site work. The stretch properties are inherent to the woven construction, ensuring they don't lose their shape over time. The shaped waistband is a thoughtful addition for anyone who spends their day bending or kneeling, providing a secure fit that avoids the discomfort of standard-cut work shorts.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
To maintain a professional appearance that matches the technical quality of the garment, we recommend our expert embroidery services for these shorts. Embroidery is the superior choice for this specific stretch softshell material, providing a durable and textured finish for your company logo or staff names. This method ensures your branding remains intact even as the fabric flexes and moves during the working day.
Our in-house customisation team in Telford has been perfecting these techniques since 1976, ensuring that every stitch meets our exacting standards. While some lightweight garments are suited for various methods, the texture and technical coating of these shorts make them an ideal canvas for high-definition embroidery, ensuring your team looks professional and stays easily identifiable on any job site.
Use Cases
These shorts are particularly well-suited for tradespeople such as electricians, plumbers, and carpenters who require agility and tool storage without the weight of full-length trousers. They are also an excellent choice for facility management staff and delivery professionals who are constantly on the move and need a garment that can handle both the heat and the occasional splash.

Practical Advice
The Infiltrate shorts feature a broad size range from 30 to 46-inch waists. Given the stretch nature of the softshell fabric, they offer a forgiving fit, but we recommend selecting your standard waist size for the best performance of the shaped high back waistband. If you frequently transition between heavy tool loads and lighter tasks, the detachable holster pockets allow you to adapt the garment's weight throughout the day.
Caring for your product
To maintain the technical performance of the water-repellent finish and the integrity of the stretch fabric, it is vital to follow the specific care requirements. A cool machine wash using Regatta Isotex cleaner or a pure soap is recommended. Standard detergents can sometimes contain surfactants that break down water-repellent coatings, so using the correct soap ensures the shorts continue to protect you from splashes.
Under no circumstances should you use bleach on this garment, as it will weaken the polyester fibres and lead to premature wear and discolouration. Similarly, do not tumble dry or iron the shorts. The high heat from these processes can damage the elastic properties of the softshell weave and may even melt the synthetic fibres. Finally, avoid dry cleaning, as the harsh chemicals used in the process are incompatible with the technical finish of the fabric.
