FAQs

Is this changing robe suitable for year-round use?

Yes, thanks to its waterproof and windproof Hydrafort 5000 fabric and warm Borg fleece lining, it is designed to provide comfort and protection in various weather conditions, making it suitable for use throughout the year, especially after water activities.

How do I choose the right size?

The Regatta Waterproof Changing Robe features an 'oversized fit' designed to accommodate changing inside. It is generally one-size-fits-most for adults. Refer to the product's specific sizing chart if available, but its loose design is intended for versatility across different body types.

Can I machine wash the changing robe?

Yes, you can machine wash the robe. It's recommended to wash it at 30°C (86°F) on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Do not use fabric softener, and always close all zippers and fastenings before washing. Hang dry only.

Does it have internal pockets for valuables?

Yes, the Regatta Waterproof Changing Robe includes an inner security pocket, perfect for safely storing small valuables like keys, a phone, or a wallet while you are changing or wearing the robe.

How effective is the waterproof feature?

The robe utilizes Hydrafort 5000 fabric with taped seams and a Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish, providing complete waterproof protection. This ensures you remain dry and protected from rain and splashes while wearing it.

Is the robe heavy or bulky to carry?

While providing ample warmth and space for changing, the robe is oversized and substantial to ensure its protective qualities. This means it may be bulkier than a standard towel or lightweight jacket, especially when packed. Its weight is appropriate for its performance features.

Troubleshooting

Robe feels less waterproof over time

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may need reactivating. Gently tumble dry on a low heat setting for a short period, or apply a DWR-restoring spray designed for waterproof garments. Ensure the robe is clean before applying DWR treatments.

Robe is not as warm as expected

Ensure the robe is fully zipped and cuffs are adjusted to prevent cold air ingress. The Borg fleece lining provides warmth, but in extremely cold conditions, additional layers might be needed underneath. Also, ensure the robe is dry, as dampness reduces insulation.

Unpleasant odor develops in the robe

This often occurs if the robe is stored while damp. Always ensure the robe is completely dry before folding or storing. Wash according to care instructions, and if odor persists, a specialized outdoor gear cleaner designed to remove odors may be necessary.

Zippers feel stiff or sticky

Clean any dirt or debris from the zipper teeth. You can apply a small amount of zipper lubricant (e.g., silicone-based) to the teeth to improve smooth operation. Avoid forcing the zipper.

Borg fleece lining feels matted or less plush

Over time and with washing, fleece can become less fluffy. To restore some loft, wash according to instructions and avoid high heat drying. You can also gently brush the fleece after drying with a soft-bristled brush.

Care Instructions

To maintain the performance and longevity of your Regatta Waterproof Changing Robe, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Washing:
  • Close all zippers and fastenings before washing.
  • Wash with similar colors.
  • Use a mild detergent.
  • Do not use fabric softener, as it can impair the waterproof and DWR properties.
  • Machine wash cold (30°C / 86°F) on a gentle cycle.
  1. Drying:
  • Do not tumble dry. High heat can damage the waterproof coating and taped seams.
  • Hang dry in a well-ventilated area, away from direct heat or sunlight.
  • Allow to air dry completely before storing to prevent mildew.
  1. Durable Water Repellent (DWR) Reactivation:
  • Over time, the DWR finish may wear off. If water no longer beads on the surface, you can reactivate it by gently tumble drying on a low heat setting for a short period (refer to care label for specific temperatures), or by applying a DWR-restoring spray designed for technical outerwear.
  1. Storage:
  • Store in a dry, cool place when not in use. Ensure it is completely dry before storing to prevent odors or mold.
