What’s everyones thoughts on our new Gorilla Robes mascot?

We are in the process of designing some robes specifically for kids (and maybe adult sizes) in new and funky patterns with this chappy printed on.

What sports and activities do you think we should get him doing on the robes?

If we do adult sizes what shall we get him doing? (Please keep it PG rated)

Like always your honest feedback is really important to us.

Thanks so much to Swoopsy for this first draft.

What does everyone think of these please? Honest customer feedback really wanted!

We have had genuine feedback that robes can take up a lot space in small rucksacks and swimming floating dry bags.

So I have designed and made these double compression hanging straps.

Roll your eco or waterproof robe up extra small and then make them even smaller and compact with these double straps.

They use Velcro and have a hanging strap to hang on a hook for storage.

> What do you think?
> Is there anything you would change with them?
> Does anyone want to test some?
> I bought the industrial sewing machine and learned how to sew from YouTube so if anyone has any sewing or fabric experience please help.

Have a great week. Barney

We sent Taylor aged 6 one of the new pink robes to test and try out... and we came back to find this awesome hand written letter!

Thoughts and feedback on a new prototype that we made over the weekend please!

All based on customer feedback we are thinking of adding a small neck zip with toggle to the ECO recycled robe to make getting a bra or t-shirt on easier.

What are your thoughts and feedback please? Do you prefer buttons? Do we need to make it longer/shorter? Does it need the toggle? Is it over-engineered?

***PINK ROBE NEW PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT***

Due to very popular demand, a range of Pink ECO Recycled robes are coming this summer.

1. Should we go for a light pink (sugar pink)?

2. Should we go for a darker shade of pink?

3. Should we go for a pastel pink?

PS: matching dog-owner robes are coming too!

All suggestions and comments are welcome.
