FAQs
Is this changing robe truly waterproof?
Yes, the Regatta Waterproof Changing Robe features a Hydrafort outer fabric which is specifically designed to be waterproof and windproof, protecting you from rain and wet conditions.
Can I machine wash this robe?
Yes, you can machine wash it. We recommend washing it cold (30°C / 86°F) on a gentle cycle using a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as these can compromise the fabric's performance.
What is the lining made of and how warm is it?
The robe is lined with soft Borg fleece, which is designed to provide excellent warmth and comfort, making it ideal for colder temperatures and after-activity chills.
Is it suitable for all body types?
The Regatta Waterproof Changing Robe comes in an oversized, loose fit, which is designed to accommodate a wide range of adult body types comfortably and provide ample space for changing underneath.
Can I use it for activities other than changing?
Absolutely! While perfect for discreet changing, its waterproof, windproof, and warm properties make it an excellent general-purpose outer layer for staying cozy and protected during outdoor events, camping, or just relaxing outdoors.
How should I dry the changing robe?
Always air dry your changing robe. Hang it in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not tumble dry, as high heat can damage the waterproof membrane and fleece lining.
Troubleshooting
Robe feels less waterproof over time
The waterproof coating can wear down or become clogged with dirt. Ensure you're following the recommended washing instructions. If the issue persists, consider applying a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) reproofing spray specifically designed for waterproof outerwear.
Fleece lining feels less soft or matted
This can happen with improper washing. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can build up on fleece fibers. Wash on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent and air dry. A soft brush can sometimes help to restore the pile slightly after drying.
Zipper gets stuck or is difficult to operate
Dirt or sand can interfere with zipper function. First, try cleaning the zipper teeth with a small brush and soapy water. If it's still stiff, apply a silicone-based zipper lubricant or even a graphite pencil lead to the teeth.
Robe retains odors after use
Ensure the robe is fully air-dried immediately after each use, especially if it gets damp. If odors persist, wash according to care instructions and add a cup of white vinegar to the rinse cycle (or a specific sports-detergent designed for odor removal) to help neutralize smells.
