FAQs

What is Hydrafort 5000 fabric?

Hydrafort 5000 is a specialized 100% polyester fabric developed by Regatta that is both waterproof and windproof, designed to offer reliable protection against the elements. The '5000' refers to its hydrostatic head rating, indicating its level of waterproofing.

Is this changing robe suitable for both men and women?

Yes, the Regatta Waterproof Changing Robe features a unisex design and an oversized fit, making it suitable for both men and women.

Can I use this robe for general wear, not just changing?

Absolutely! While designed for changing, its waterproof, windproof, and warm properties make it an excellent general-purpose outer layer for staying warm and dry during various outdoor activities like walking the dog, spectating sports, or simply staying cozy outdoors.

How do I maintain the waterproof qualities of the robe?

To maintain waterproofing, wash the robe according to the care label (cold machine wash, gentle cycle, no fabric softener). Air dry completely. Avoiding harsh detergents and tumble drying helps preserve the DWR finish and the integrity of the waterproof membrane.

Does the robe come in different sizes?

The Regatta Waterproof Changing Robe is designed with an `oversized fit` to accommodate a wide range of body types and ensure ample space for changing. Specific size variations beyond this `oversized fit` are not specified for this model.

Is the Borg fleece removable?

No, the Borg fleece lining is integrated and sewn into the robe, providing permanent warmth and comfort. It is not designed to be removable.

Troubleshooting

My robe feels less waterproof after some use.

Ensure the DWR finish is not compromised. First, wash the robe according to care instructions to remove dirt and oils that might be affecting water repellency. If water still soaks in rather than beading, consider a re-application of a DWR treatment spray suitable for waterproof fabrics (sold separately, not included with product).

The Borg fleece lining doesn't feel as warm as expected.

Ensure the robe is fully zipped and the hood is up to maximize warmth. Check that the adjustable cuffs are cinched. If wearing it in extremely cold conditions, consider layering thermal clothing underneath. The fleece insulates best when trapping a layer of warm air.

It's difficult to change inside the robe, despite the oversized fit.

Practice makes perfect. Try standing upright and using the generous width to maneuver. It's often easier to remove bottom garments first, then top garments. Ensure you have enough space around you to move freely without snagging. The oversized design is for convenience, but personal technique plays a role.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior Weather Protection: Fully waterproof and windproof with taped seams, ideal for harsh outdoor environments.
  • Exceptional Warmth & Comfort: The thick Borg fleece lining ensures warmth and a cozy feel even in cold conditions.
  • Convenient Discreet Changing: Oversized design provides ample space to change comfortably in public or outdoor settings.
  • Practical Storage: Multiple pockets, including an inner security pocket, offer versatile storage options.
  • Durable Construction: Made with robust polyester fabric designed for longevity and resilience.

Cons

  • Bulky Design: The oversized fit, while great for changing, can be bulky for general wear or packing.
  • Weight: The combination of waterproof fabric and thick fleece may result in a heavier garment compared to standard coats.
  • Limited Breathability: While protective, the fully waterproof and fleece-lined design might lead to reduced breathability during high exertion activities.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Using your Regatta Waterproof Changing Robe is straightforward:

  1. Simply slip the robe on over your wet clothing. The `oversized fit` ensures easy entry.
  2. Utilize the ample internal space to remove your wet garments and put on dry ones.
  3. Zip up the front and pull up the `grown on hood` for maximum warmth and protection.
  4. Adjust the `cuffs` for a snug fit to keep out drafts.

Compatibility

  • Age Group: Designed for adults.
  • Gender: This is a unisex robe, suitable for all genders.
  • Material: Primarily made from `100% polyester` for the outer shell and a `Borg fleece lining` for warmth.

Care Instructions

Proper care will extend the life and maintain the performance of your waterproof changing robe:

  • Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can impair the DWR finish and the waterproof properties of the fabric. Wash separately or with similar colors.
  • Drying: Air dry only. Hang the robe in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not tumble dry, as high heat can damage the waterproof coating and fleece lining.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Ensure it is completely dry before storing to prevent mildew.
  • Maintenance: Regularly check for any signs of wear or damage to the fabric or seams. While durable, sharp objects or abrasive surfaces can compromise the waterproof integrity. Avoid ironing.

> Info needed: Specific washing temperature and spin cycle recommendations, if different from standard cold/gentle.
