FAQs
What age is the 5-6 size suitable for?
This robe is designed for children typically aged 5 to 6 years old, following standard UK children's sizing. It's designed to be roomy for easy changing.
Is this changing robe truly waterproof?
Yes, it features Regatta's Hydrafort 5000 fabric which is waterproof and windproof, providing excellent protection against rain and wind.
Can it be used for activities other than changing after swimming?
Absolutely! While ideal for post-swim, its warmth and weather protection make it perfect for any outdoor activity where your child needs to stay warm and dry, or quickly change clothes, such as sports, camping, or muddy play.
How do I wash the changing robe?
Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with similar colors and a mild detergent. Do not use fabric softener or bleach. Air dry only; do not tumble dry or iron.
Is the Borg fleece lining removable?
No, the Borg fleece lining is sewn in and is not designed to be removed. It's an integral part of the robe's warmth and comfort features.
What material is the robe made from?
The outer shell and inner lining are both made from 100% Polyester, with the lining being a soft Borg fleece for warmth.
Troubleshooting
Robe feels too big or bulky.
The design is intentionally roomy to allow for discreet changing underneath. This is a feature, not a flaw. If using it purely as an outer layer, remember its primary purpose is changing and warmth.
Waterproofing seems less effective over time.
Ensure you are following the care instructions carefully, especially avoiding fabric softeners. Regular washing with appropriate detergent helps maintain the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish. If the issue persists, consider using a DWR-restoring wash-in product specifically designed for waterproof outerwear.
Fleece lining feels less soft or matted.
Over-washing or tumble drying can affect fleece. Stick to cold washes and air drying. A gentle brush after drying can sometimes help restore loft.
Child struggles to change clothes inside.
Ensure the child has enough space. The robe is designed to be spacious; practice in a relaxed environment can help them get used to the movement required.
