Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Using the Regatta Junior Waterproof Changing Robe requires no complex setup. Simply put it on over your existing clothes or directly after removing wet garments. Ensure the child's size matches the robe for optimal comfort and changing space. The oversized design is intentional for ease of movement during changing, so it will feel larger than a standard coat.
Compatibility
This changing robe is designed for unisex use, making it suitable for all children. It is ideal for a wide range of activities including:
- Swimming (pool or open water)
- Beach trips
- Surfing, paddleboarding, kayaking
- Post-sports activities (football, rugby, athletics)
- Camping and outdoor adventures
- Anytime a warm, protective layer is needed for changing outdoors.
Care
Proper care will extend the life and performance of your changing robe.
- Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle. Close all zippers before washing. Use a mild detergent.
- Drying: Air dry only. Do not tumble dry, as high heat can damage the waterproof coating and fleece lining. Hang it in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat.
- Bleaching/Ironing: Do not bleach. Do not iron, as this will damage the waterproof properties and fleece.
- Storage: Store in a dry, cool place when not in use. Ensure it is completely dry before storing to prevent mildew.
- Re-proofing (Optional): Over time, the waterproof treatment may wear off. You can restore it using a suitable technical fabric re-proofing spray or wash-in product, following the manufacturer's instructions. This is typically done after several washes if water no longer beads off the surface.
