Product Information
Full details
The Freespirit Aquarobe Pro is a high-performance changing robe designed for adults engaged in watersports, wild swimming, and outdoor activities. It excels at keeping users warm and dry thanks to its robust waterproof exterior and deep-pile fleece lining, though its bulky, oversized design means it is less convenient for packing into small daypacks.

FAQs
Is the Aquarobe Pro fully waterproof?

Can I wear this robe while sitting on wet ground?
Yes, the waterproof base prevents moisture from seeping through to your clothes.
What is the best way to clean the fleece lining?
It is best cleaned by shaking it out after drying. For deep cleaning, use a delicate cycle and air dry.
Does it have enough room to change inside comfortably?
The robe features an oversized design specifically intended to provide enough space for changing clothes discreetly.
Are the pockets waterproof?
The pockets are zipped for security but should not be considered fully submersible; keep electronics in the internal zipped pocket for extra safety.
Is the robe suitable for all seasons?

Troubleshooting
Zip feels stiff or sticks
Clear any salt crystals or grit from the teeth and apply a dedicated zipper lubricant or a small amount of paraffin wax.
Water stops beading on the surface
The DWR finish may be wearing off. Apply a wash-in or spray-on technical reproofing treatment designed for waterproof membranes.
Excessive fluff or shedding from lining
This is common in new fleece garments. Shake out the robe firmly and it should subside after the first few uses.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Freespirit Aquarobe Pro lasts for years, follow these guidelines:
- Maintenance: Shake out the inner fleece after use to remove sand or debris. If the robe becomes muddy, spot clean with a damp cloth.
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle, cold cycle with a technical detergent if necessary. Do not use heavy fabric softeners as they can degrade the DWR coating.
- Drying: Air dry naturally on a hanger in a well-ventilated area. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as these can damage the waterproof membrane and the fleece loft.
- Storage: Store hanging up rather than folded for long periods to maintain the integrity of the insulation and waterproof finish.
