FAQs
What makes this changing robe 'Premium EVO PRO'?
The 'Premium EVO PRO' designation refers to its advanced features, including higher waterproof/breathability ratings (15k/8k), 100% recycled fabric, an improved contoured fit, and a comprehensive pocket system.
Is the recycled fabric as durable as virgin polyester?
Yes, 100% recycled polyester fabric is engineered to offer comparable durability and performance to virgin polyester while being more sustainable.
How do I choose the right size?
The robe has a tailored fit for a sleek look. Refer to the brand's sizing chart for specific measurements to ensure optimal comfort and ease of changing.
Can I wear this as an everyday jacket?
While it offers excellent protection, its primary design is for changing outdoors. The fit and features are optimized for this purpose, but it can be worn as a stylish, waterproof outer layer in suitable conditions.
How does the Airdry feature work?
Laser-cut holes are strategically placed on the hem and under the arms. These allow moisture vapor (sweat) to escape from inside the robe, facilitating quicker drying and increased comfort.
What is the capacity of the internal water bottle pocket?
The internal water bottle pocket is designed to be large enough to securely hold a standard-sized water bottle, keeping it accessible and upright.
How does the hood offer head protection?
The hood features a peak for better rain deflection and is adjustable. It also includes a fleece-lined zip guard at the neck to prevent chafing and add extra warmth.
Troubleshooting
Water not beading on the outer fabric
The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment may have worn off. Reapply a PFC-free DWR spray or wash-in treatment according to the product instructions.
Zippers are stiff or difficult to move
Ensure the zipper area is clean and free of debris. Gently pull the zipper while keeping the fabric taut. A silicone-based lubricant can be applied sparingly if needed.
Robe feels damp inside despite being waterproof
Check that the Airdry vents (underarm and hem) are not obstructed. Ensure the robe is not being worn over excessively damp clothing which could impede drying.
Reduced warmth or wind resistance
Ensure the hood is properly adjusted and the zip is fully closed. The tailored fit is designed to minimize drafts, but ensure no gaps are present.
