Is it easy for a child to change inside the robe?

What should I do if the waterproofing seems less effective?

Troubleshooting
Waterproofing seems reduced.
Ensure the garment is clean and free from dirt or oils. Consider applying a re-proofer suitable for waterproof fabrics, following the product's instructions.
Fleece lining feels matted.
Avoid using fabric softener during washing. Tumble dry on a low setting with clean tennis balls to help restore loft to the fleece.
Robe feels too large.
The generous fit is intentional for ease of changing. For a snugger feel, consider layering warmer clothing underneath or exploring smaller size options if available.
Zipper is stiff.
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and apply a small amount of wax (like beeswax or a zipper lubricant) to help it glide smoothly.
