FAQs

What is the primary purpose of this changing robe?

The primary purpose is to provide a private and comfortable way to change in and out of swimwear or sports gear outdoors, while also offering warmth and protection from the elements.

How do I choose the right size?

The robe has an oversized fit designed for easy changing. If you prefer a less baggy fit for general wear, it is recommended to size down.

Is this robe suitable for very cold weather?

Yes, the combination of a waterproof outer layer, Sherpa lining, and fleece-lined sleeves provides significant warmth and protection against wind chill, making it suitable for cold conditions.

Can I wear this as an everyday coat?

While it offers warmth and weather protection, its design is optimized for changing. If you intend to wear it primarily as a coat, consider sizing down for a more conventional fit.

How should I clean the robe?

It is machine washable. Use a cool wash cycle with a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low or air dry.

What does '3K waterproof' mean?

A 3K waterproof rating indicates that the fabric can withstand the equivalent of 3,000 millimeters of water in a standardized test, offering good protection against moderate rain and splashes.

Are the pockets waterproof?

The pockets are fleeced-lined and zipped for security, but the primary outer layer provides the main waterproofing. It's best to keep electronics in a waterproof pouch within the pockets if concerned about heavy rain or submersion.

Troubleshooting

Waterproofing seems reduced

Ensure the robe is washed without fabric softener and consider a re-waterproofing treatment if necessary, following product instructions.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and apply a small amount of wax or silicone lubricant. Avoid forcing the zipper.

Lining feels damp after extended use

Ensure the robe is fully dry before storing. Hang it in a well-ventilated area after each use to allow moisture to dissipate.

Velcro cuffs are losing grip

Clean the Velcro surfaces with a stiff brush to remove any lint or debris that may be hindering adhesion.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Compatibility:

Designed as a changing robe, it is compatible with various activities such as surfing, wild swimming, paddleboarding, and general outdoor use where changing in the elements is required. Its oversized fit ensures compatibility with wearing casual clothing underneath.

Care:

  • Washing: Machine washable. Follow the care label instructions carefully, typically a cool wash cycle.
  • Detergent: Use mild detergents. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can degrade the waterproof and wicking properties of the materials.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang to air dry. Avoid high heat, which can damage the fabric and its performance features.
  • Ironing: If ironing is necessary, use a low heat setting and iron inside out. Do not iron directly on any printed logos or reflective elements.
