FAQs

What is Hydrafort fabric?

Hydrafort is a Regatta brand fabric designed to be waterproof and windproof, offering protection from the elements.

Can I wear this as an everyday coat?

While it offers excellent weather protection, its primary design is for changing outdoors. Its loose fit and towelled lining might not suit all everyday fashion preferences.

How do I choose the right size?

The robe features a versatile loose fit. Consider your typical changing needs; if you need maximum room, stick to your usual size. If you prefer slightly less bulk, you might consider sizing down.

Is the towelled lining warm enough for winter?

The towelled lining provides a comfortable layer of warmth. For very cold conditions, it's advisable to wear additional thermal layers underneath.

How often should I re-waterproof the robe?

The frequency depends on usage and environmental conditions. A general guideline is to re-waterproof after several washes or when you notice water is no longer beading on the surface.

Can I machine dry the changing robe?

Yes, you can tumble dry the changing robe on a low heat setting. However, air drying is often recommended to prolong the life of the waterproof treatment.

What are the dimensions of the front pockets?

The product information does not specify exact pocket dimensions, but they are designed to hold small essentials like keys or a phone.

Troubleshooting

Water is seeping through the fabric.

Ensure the Hydrafort outer fabric has been recently re-waterproofed. Clean the garment according to care instructions and reapply a waterproofing treatment if necessary.

The zip is sticking.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to free it. Lubricate the zipper teeth with a graphite pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant if necessary.

The towelled lining feels damp after use.

Ensure the robe is fully dried after washing and before storage. If it feels damp after changing, this indicates the lining is actively absorbing moisture, which is normal. Allow it to air dry completely afterward.

Loose threads are appearing.

Carefully trim any loose threads with scissors, ensuring not to cut into the main fabric or seams.
