FAQs

Is this changing robe suitable for both men and women?

Yes, the Regatta Adult Waterproof Changing Robe is designed with an oversized, unisex fit intended for all adults. Its primary purpose is to provide discreet changing space and warmth, which is universally beneficial.

How waterproof is the Hydrafort 5000 fabric?

Hydrafort 5000 fabric is highly waterproof with a hydrostatic head rating of 5000mm. Combined with taped seams and a Durable Water Repellent finish, it offers excellent protection against rain and wind.

Can I wear this robe as a regular coat or jacket?

While you can wear it over clothes for warmth and protection, its oversized design is specifically tailored for discreet changing and can feel bulky compared to a regular fitted coat. It's best suited for its intended purpose of pre/post-activity changing and staying warm when static.

What is Borg fleece?

Borg fleece is a type of synthetic fleece fabric known for its deep pile and soft, sherpa-like texture. It's designed to trap a significant amount of air, providing excellent insulation and warmth, making it very comfortable against the skin.

How do I clean the changing robe?

Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Do not use fabric softeners or bleach. Air dry completely away from direct heat. Regular washing can help maintain its breathability and performance.

Are there different sizes available for the robe?

Info needed: Please refer to the product listing or sizing guide for available sizes, as 'oversized' often comes in broader ranges like S/M, L/XL, etc., rather than precise clothing sizes.

Does it have internal pockets for valuables?

Yes, it features an inner security pocket, which is ideal for safely storing small valuables like keys, phones, or wallets while you change or stay warm.

Troubleshooting

Water seems to be soaking into the fabric rather than beading off.

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may need to be reactivated or reapplied. Try gently tumble drying the robe on a low heat setting (if care label permits) to reactivate the existing DWR. If this doesn't work, consider applying a dedicated DWR spray for technical outerwear.

The robe feels too bulky or restrictive for movement.

The robe is intentionally oversized to provide ample room for discreet changing underneath. It is not designed to be a close-fitting garment for active movement. For its intended purpose of changing and staying warm while static, its size is a feature. If wearing it for extended periods, adjust cuffs and hood for personal comfort.

Fleece lining feels less soft or warm over time.

Ensure you are following the washing instructions carefully. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can clog the fibers of the fleece, reducing its loft and warmth. Air drying fully is also important; high heat can damage fleece fibers.

Pockets feel damp or cold.

Ensure the robe is fully dry before use and storage. If water has penetrated, check if seams around the pockets are intact. For items that must stay completely dry, use the inner security pocket which is better protected.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup

Care & Maintenance

Proper care will extend the life and maintain the performance of your changing robe:

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, bleach, or harsh detergents as these can degrade the waterproof finish and fleece.
  2. Drying: Do not tumble dry. Hang to air dry away from direct heat sources (e.g., radiators, direct sunlight). Ensure it is completely dry before storing.
  3. Durable Water Repellent (DWR) Reactivation: Over time, the DWR finish may wear off, causing the fabric to wet out. You can often reactivate the DWR by gently tumble drying on a low heat setting (check garment label first) or by applying a DWR-restoring spray designed for waterproof fabrics.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Ensure it is clean and dry before storing to prevent mildew.
  5. Stains: Spot clean small stains with a damp cloth and mild soap. Rinse thoroughly.
