FAQs

What is the waterproof rating of this robe?

The robe is waterproof to 10,000mm, meaning it can withstand a significant amount of water pressure before it begins to leak.

Is this robe suitable for all seasons?

Yes, its all-weather design and oversized fit allow for layering, making it suitable for protection against wind and rain across all four seasons.

How do I care for the Bionic-Finish Eco treatment?

The Bionic-Finish Eco treatment is designed for durability. To maintain its performance, it is recommended to re-apply a suitable DWR treatment periodically, especially if you notice water no longer beads and runs off the fabric.

Can I add my own logo or embroidery?

Yes, the robe has a hidden zip in the lining specifically designed to allow for easy addition of custom embroidery or team logos.

What does 'oversized fit' mean for this robe?

An oversized fit means the robe is cut larger than a standard fit, providing ample room for layering warm clothing underneath and allowing for freedom of movement, especially when riding.

How do I clean the robe?

The robe can be machine washed at 30°C with similar colours. Ensure all zips are closed before washing. Do not bleach, tumble dry, or iron.

What are the benefits of the rider vents?

The rear rider vents are positioned to provide comfort and allow for better movement when seated in the saddle, preventing the robe from restricting the rider.

Troubleshooting

Water is seeping through the fabric.

Ensure the Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish is intact. If the fabric appears saturated, it may need re-application of a DWR treatment. Check that all seams are properly taped and that the fabric itself has not been compromised.

The zipper is difficult to pull.

Check the zipper for any fabric snags. Gently try to clear any obstructions. If the zipper is stiff, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a specialized zipper lubricant can be applied.

The hood feels too loose or does not stay up.

Adjust the elasticated drawcord within the hood to tighten the fit around the face. Ensure the hood is properly attached if it is a removable design.

Reduced breathability, feeling clammy inside.

Ensure the inner mesh lining is clean and free from debris. If the garment has been heavily soiled, wash according to care instructions. Over time, breathability can decrease; consider a specialized wash to restore membrane performance.
