Your Donation

Every robe gives a little back.

For each Alby & Loom robe sold, $2 is donated to support dogs in need. Donations are tallied monthly and contributed to a nominated dog rescue or animal welfare organisation.

From time to time, we may rotate our nominated rescue — usually quarterly — so we can support different organisations helping dogs find safety, care and loving homes.

Our first nominated rescue will be based in Newcastle, NSW, with updates shared as our first donation period is completed.

OEKO-TEX® Certified Fabrics

Our robes are made with OEKO-TEX® certified cotton fabrics, selected for softness, comfort and peace of mind.

The certification applies to the cotton fabrics used in our robes, which have been tested for harmful substances. Our finished robes are then designed with a double-layer construction to help keep dogs warm, dry and cosy after baths, swims and rainy walks.

Materials & Care

Fabric
Dual-layer: Plush soft 100% cotton terry inner for absorbency, 100% cotton gingham outer for comfort & structure.

Care
• Wash: cold–warm gentle; no fabric softener (reduces absorbency)
• Dry: line or tumble low; avoid high heat
• Do not bleach

Some initial lint is normal; slight natural shrinkage may occur.
