Product Information
Full details
The Bench Leacy Waterproof Changing Robe is designed for outdoor enthusiasts and swimmers who need reliable protection and warmth before or after water activities. Featuring a durable waterproof polyester shell paired with a cozy interior fleece lining, it offers excellent thermal retention in harsh weather. Please note that due to the generous sizing required for changing, it may feel bulkier than a standard jacket, which is intentional for its primary use as a mobile changing station.

FAQs
Is this robe machine washable?
Yes, you can machine wash the robe on a cool, gentle cycle. It is recommended to turn it inside out to protect the outer shell.
Can I wear this while swimming?
No, this robe is designed for use before and after water activities to provide warmth and changing privacy; it is not intended for use in the water.
Is the robe windproof?
Yes, the waterproof polyester shell provides a strong barrier against wind chill, making it ideal for coastal or windy environments.
How do I choose the right size?
The robe is designed with an oversized fit to facilitate easy changing. If you prefer a more tailored look for casual wear, consider checking the chest and length measurements relative to your height.
Does it have an internal pocket for valuables?
Yes, the robe features an interior pocket specifically designed to keep your phone or keys safe while you are busy changing.
Will the fleece lining dry quickly?
The fleece is designed to manage moisture efficiently, but like all thick materials, it performs best when hung in a well-ventilated area to air out between uses.
Troubleshooting
Water begins to soak through the outer shell
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating may have worn off. Apply a specialized spray-on DWR treatment to restore waterproof performance.
Fleece lining feels clumped or matted
Wash the robe inside out on a low-temperature cycle and tumble dry on a low heat setting to fluff up the fleece fibers.
Zippers feel stiff or stick
Clear any debris from the zipper teeth and apply a small amount of silicone lubricant or rub a pencil lead over the teeth to improve movement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Bench Leacy robe remains effective, follow these care guidelines: Always hang the robe to air dry after use rather than leaving it in a damp bag, as this prevents mildew and maintains the freshness of the fleece. When cleaning, use a gentle cycle with cold water to avoid damaging the waterproof polyester membrane; avoid harsh fabric softeners which can strip away water-repellent treatments. For long-term storage, keep the robe in a dry, ventilated area away from direct sunlight to preserve the fabric's integrity and color.
