Sustainability
At Red, sustainability isn’t just marketing hype – it’s at the core of what we do. As a certified B Corp (www.bcorporation.net) we champion high standards of social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability.
Our statement-making Recovered Pro Change Robe EVO puts the style in sustainability, with our limited-edition collection made using surplus fabric yet to find a home. Everything from the inner and outer fabrics to the patch panel pockets has been sustainably sourced from 100% recycled fabrics that keep ethical fashion followers in mind. But with the robe’s environmentally-friendly credentials comes the reassurance of Red’s no-compromising standards and robust materials that stand the test of time.
By creating a limited-edition robe will lots of longevity, we can limit our impact on the planet by putting an end to the throwaway culture and providing a product that’s built to last and be easily repaired.
Care
Try to spot-wash the Kids Dry Poncho unless it’s really filthy. As with all DWR-treated fabrics, the more you wash the less treatment the garment is exposed to, so as a general rule try to minimise thorough washes to times when it’s absolutely necessary.
When you do wash your robe, you should do so at no more than 30 degrees C with a slow spin cycle. After the first 4-5 full washes you’ll need to boost the DWR with a special outdoor kit washing liquid (Grainger’s/ Nikwax or similar) at no more than 30 degrees C, again with a slow spin cycle.
Laundry detergent is designed to break down grease and oils, and with the DWR coating looking a lot like grease to detergents, we only recommend doing this every 3 – 6 months depending on how much wear the robe has had.
We suggest washing and drying inside out as the outer layer will dry quickly, whereas the fleece lining will take longer by nature if its thicker fabric. By hanging the robe inside out you’ll also allow any residual water to evaporate faster. If possible, dry it flat in the sun or in winter, hanging the robe in a warm spot will speed up drying.
Materials
But while the robust outer layer is built to withstand the harshest of elements, the 300gsm polyester Sherpa-fleece inner lining is ultra-soft of your kids’ skin, as well as scoring on its eco creds. The 100% recycled material is moisture-wicking, meaning it expertly draws water away from the skin while also insulating to keep the wearer truly toasty.
