FAQs

What activities is the Regatta Waterproof Changing Robe best suited for?

It is ideal for outdoor activities where you need to change clothes discreetly and stay warm and dry, such as after wild swimming, surfing, paddleboarding, or other water sports. It's also great for staying comfortable at outdoor events in cold or wet weather.

Is the changing robe truly waterproof?

Yes, it features Regatta's Hydrafort 5000 fabric with a durable water repellent (DWR) finish and taped seams, providing complete waterproof protection against rain and wind.

How do I choose the right size?

The Regatta Waterproof Changing Robe is designed with an oversized fit to provide ample room for changing and layering. It typically comes in a universal adult size that accommodates most body types comfortably for its intended purpose.

Can I machine wash the changing robe?

Yes, you can machine wash it on a gentle cycle with cold water. Use a mild, non-biological detergent and avoid fabric softeners, bleach, or harsh chemicals. Always close zippers before washing.

What is 'Hydrafort 5000' fabric?

Hydrafort 5000 is Regatta's proprietary waterproof and windproof fabric technology, designed to keep you dry and comfortable in challenging weather conditions. The '5000' typically refers to its hydrostatic head rating, indicating a high level of waterproofing.

What are the benefits of the Borg fleece lining?

The Borg fleece lining is thick and soft, providing excellent insulation and warmth. It helps trap body heat, making the robe very comfortable and quick-drying, particularly after being in the water.

Are there pockets on the changing robe?

Yes, the robe includes an internal zipped security pocket for valuables and two zipped lower pockets, offering secure storage for your essentials while keeping them protected from the elements.

Troubleshooting

Robe does not feel warm enough in cold conditions.

Ensure the robe is fully zipped and the hood is up. The oversized nature allows for layering; consider wearing additional thermal layers underneath for extreme cold.

Water appears to be soaking into the fabric, not beading off.

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may need to be reactivated or reapplied. Wash the robe according to care instructions, then apply a suitable DWR re-proofing spray or wash-in treatment designed for waterproof fabrics.

Zippers are stiff or difficult to move.

Regularly clean zippers with warm water and mild soap. Apply a silicone-based zipper lubricant or wax to improve smooth operation. Avoid forcing stiff zippers.

Robe feels too bulky or heavy when carrying.

The robe's oversized and insulated design is intentional for warmth and changing space. If portability is a concern, consider a compression sack if available or necessary, but acknowledge its primary function as a robust changing and protective garment.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior Weather Protection: Fully waterproof and windproof, protecting against rain, wind, and cold.
  • Discreet Changing: The oversized design allows for private changing anywhere outdoors.
  • Exceptional Warmth: Thick Borg fleece lining provides significant insulation and comfort.
  • Practical Storage: Multiple zipped pockets keep personal items secure and dry.
  • Durable Construction: Taped seams and robust fabric ensure long-lasting performance.
  • Eco-Friendly Material: Made with recycled polyester, supporting sustainable practices.

Cons

  • Bulky Form Factor: The oversized design, while functional for changing, can be bulky to carry or store.
  • Specific Use-Case: Primarily designed for changing and post-activity warmth, it may not be suitable as an everyday outerwear garment.

Setup

The Regatta Waterproof Changing Robe requires no complex setup. Simply unpack it and it's ready for use. Its oversized design means it's generally a one-size-fits-most adult garment, offering ample space for comfortable changing.

Compatibility

This robe is designed for adults and is highly compatible with a wide range of outdoor activities where changing outdoors is necessary or staying warm and dry is a priority. It pairs well with swimwear, wetsuits, and athletic wear.

Care Instructions

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

  1. Cleaning:
  • Machine Wash: It is generally recommended to machine wash on a gentle cycle using cold water.
  • Detergent: Use a mild, non-biological liquid detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, bleach, and harsh detergents, as they can damage the waterproof coating and DWR finish.
  • Zippers: Close all zippers and fasteners before washing to prevent snagging.
  1. Drying:
  • Air Dry: Hang the robe to air dry away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not tumble dry, as high heat can damage the fabric and waterproof membranes.
  1. Waterproofing Maintenance:
  • Over time, the `Durable Water Repellent (DWR)` finish on the outer fabric may wear off, causing water to soak into the fabric rather than bead up.
  • To restore DWR, clean the robe and then apply a spray-on or wash-in DWR treatment specifically designed for waterproof breathable fabrics. Follow the product instructions carefully.
  1. Storage:
  • Store the robe in a dry, well-ventilated area when not in use. Ensure it is completely dry before storing to prevent mildew.
