Overview


The Go-To Apparel For Surgery Recovery


In 2011, Allison Schickel was on a girls' trip, laughing with her friends about the Bra+Robe combo she had sewn together to make getting ready for work easier. They jokingly, but aptly, named it "The Brobe." The following year, Allison's friend, Wendy, was diagnosed with Stage III Breast Cancer, and the Brobe took on a whole new purpose.  After hearing about Wendy’s dehumanizing experience – managing incredible physical and emotional pain from loss of her breasts, juggling post-surgical drains as she struggled to complete basic tasks like taking a shower, and covering up her post-surgical body with the poor quality "gown" the hospital had given her – Allison decided to take the Brobe to the next level.




The Problem & Our solution


Ditch the Tape and Safety Pins For Something BETTER!

Imagine you just left the hospital after major surgery. You are in pain, you have limited mobility, and you have as many as nine drain tubes funneling the fluid from your surgical wounds into receptacles tied to your limbs, which require emptying, and care, every few hours. How would you walk around? Take a shower? Sleep? It’s a harrowing experience, especially for Brobe’s original customers: women undergoing the fight of their lives against breast cancer. 




Brobe International, Inc. is named after the product that started it all: The Brobe, a "bra" and "robe" combination, replete with pockets for ice packs, prosthetics, drains, and more. Designed for women recovering from breast surgery, but applicable and used for a broad spectrum of surgeries, the Brobe is easy to put on by yourself, fully supports swollen breasts, and discreetly carries all your post-surgical drains, ice, and heat packs, and personal items, so you can focus on healing instead of constantly removing and then re-taping drains to your body, and dreading the next time you need to move, or your next bathroom break. 




Our Surgery Recovery Robe comes with 4-6 drain pockets lined on the inside of the robe. The Post-Surgical Bra is wire-free, including an extra-wide band for support, has pockets inside the bra to hold ice packs, heat packs, or prosthetic breasts, and fastens in the front with velcro and snaps. 


The 3-in-1 Belly Binder is a compression garment often used to protect the abdominal area after surgery. It helps brace and support the midsection, helps to reduce fluid buildup very common after surgery, and provides much-needed abdominal support. The Belly Binder is three separate pieces, allowing compression for the upper, middle, and lower torso. It is breathable, comfortable, and also provides lumbar support.



Brobe began with breast cancer but has expanded to help people recovering from other major surgeries. Open Heart and Organ Transplant Surgery, Mommy Makeovers, Tummy Tucks, Vasectomies, Testicular Cancer procedures, plus many more, are targeted benefactors from products in the Brobe line.

National News Exposure

We also have a special solution for pediatrics: The Elliott Superhero Robe, inspired by stories of parents going through impossibly hard times with their young children. The Elliot Superhero Robe empowers parents to help their children feel like the Superheroes they really are and has been featured on CBS Nightly News:



Children Deserve to Have Fun During Their Recovery

The Elliot Superhero Robe was designed for children battling cancer, chronic illnesses, or recovering from surgery. Just like our recovery robes for adults, these amazing robes have pockets to hold JP Drains, monitors, cords, or other medical equipment. The Superhero Robe comes with snaps along the sleeve from the wrist to the collarbone to accommodate IVs, blood pressure cuffs, and easy access to ports. 



The Superhero Robe comes with the following:


  • (1) Anti-Microbial super soft and durable Blue Robe
  • (4) Interchangeable interior pockets
  • (2) Superhero Capes in star fabric and "Super Power" word fabric
  • (2) Hats in the same fabric as the capes
  • (1) Blue Superhero mask in the same fabric as the robe and hats



The Superhero Robe is available and vital for kids with dangerous illnesses, allowing them to look and feel like superheroes while staying strong and healing.



the market & Our Traction


Brobe Fills an Enormous Gap in the Growing Adaptive Clothing Market


The adaptive clothing market, which is clothing designed for the disabled, the elderly, and post-surgical, was valued at $278.9 Billion in 2021 and is predicted to reach over $409 Billion by 2027 (Source). Meanwhile, demand for surgery is on the rise, with 40-50 million major surgeries each year in the U.S. alone (Source). Several brands specialize in adaptive clothing, but there's an empty space in post-surgical garments. Brobe is here to fill that gap. 


Brobe sells internationally online, as well as in various plastic surgery centers, lingerie boutiques, and hospital systems, as well as through our ever-expanding B2B marketplace. Moreover, Brobe has proven to be pandemic-proof, as we increased our sales by 10% EBITDA over 2019, with a demand that continues to grow by the day.




According to our research, nothing like Brobe existed before we came along, despite its authenticity and simplicity. Brobe aims to focus on the wellness and mental well-being of patients, rather than illness or surgery of any kind. By focusing on high-quality, comfortable fabrics that won’t shrink, fade, and have been designed to meet all the right needs for recovery, we believe Brobe is providing exactly what patients need on their path to recovery. 


Brobe has helped over 50,000 women battling breast cancer. In 2022, Brobe expanded to ALL major surgeries, and today, 30% of Brobe’s revenue is from non-breast cancer-related purchases. Over the years, Brobe and Allison Schickel, our founder and CEO, have won numerous awards for social impact and product design. Take a look at our achievements so far: 






Why Invest


Because Surgery is Hard Enough on Millions of People Each Year, and You Can Help Make It Better

Brobe is on a mission to provide better surgical recovery to all patients. No matter what the  circumstances, patients deserve to feel safe, comfortable, supported, and dignified during recovery. We’ve expanded the brand beyond breast cancer, and 30% of our website sales come from non-breast cancer-related surgeries. Now is the time to scale. This funding will help us grow our team and expand the company in Global Sales, Marketing, Manufacturing, Distribution, and the strong B2B marketplace consisting of major medical supply companies, hospital systems, and retail outlets. With the help of your investment, Brobe products can help ease the pain and recovery of post-surgical patients throughout the world.

Allison Schickel
Allison Schickel
Founder and CEO

Allison is a wife, mother of three, CEO, mentor, and speaker. Allison was inspired to create the original "Brobe" – a patented bra and robe combination for women undergoing breast surgeries – when a friend diagnosed with breast cancer described the pain, discomfort, and difficulty of healing while managing pain, swelling, and post-op drains for weeks. Realizing the lack of functional and feminine products available for women, she created something that gave women dignity and beauty during (what most would say is) the most challenging time of their life. Brobe has become the leader in adaptive clothing by expanding beyond the breast cancer market to offer a range of products globally for cosmetic surgeries, open heart, organ transplants, and pediatric surgery recovery. Allison has won numerous awards, including ABJ’S Profiles in Power, Dallas Market Center’s Next Big Thing, and Women’s Chamber Rising Star, and was honored as one of ten businesswomen selected for the 2017 Tory Burch Fellows program. She’s an honorary graduate from the School of Hard Knocks and has mentored students at McCombs School of Business, UT’s School of Communications, and St Edwards University Entrepreneurship program.

Invest in Brobe.Only 21 days left to help Revolutionize the Post-Surgical Recovery Experience

As a potential investor, are you looking for an innovative investment opportunity in the healthcare and fashion industry? Look no further than Brobe - a leading brand in post-surgical adaptive clothing. Investing in Brobe's post-surgical adaptive clothing, can greatly benefit individuals recovering from surgeries. 

Post-surgical procedures can leave individuals feeling sore, sensitive, or restricted in their movements, making it challenging to find suitable clothing that is comfortable and easy to wear. The Brobe products are specifically designed to cater to the unique needs of individuals recovering from surgery, featuring soft and breathable fabrics, adjustable closures, and strategically placed pockets for carrying drains or other medical supplies. 


 Brobe products help to alleviate discomfort, reduce irritation to surgical sites, and simplify the process of getting dressed during a time when individuals may be experiencing pain or limited mobility.

Investing in Brobe is about making a positive social impact. By supporting Brobe, you'll be contributing to improved post-surgical recovery experiences for patients, enhancing their comfort and quality of life during a crucial period.

Over $106k raised, 193 investments between 174 investors. Thank you!!!

Discover the transformative power of investing in a socially good company that not only generates profits but also makes a tangible difference in the lives of individuals fighting cancer, undergoing major surgeries, or awaiting life-saving transplants. 

Update:

We are still early in our B2B outreach, but I wanted to highlight a few key recent developments:

Specialty Retail. Brobe landed Lori’s Gift (based in Carrollton, TX) as a customer. They own over 400 hospital gift shops around the country. They put in their first PO a couple of weeks ago.

Medical Distributors. I have had a few meetings with regional medical distributors who are interested specifically in our post-surgical drain belt. The CEO of one of the distributors has personally been affected by breast cancer and is determined to help bring the belts into more hospitals to be provided to the patient. 

Hospitals. I was selected to be 1 of 4 businesses to pitch last week to 40+ pediatric hospitals in a showcase put on by the Innovation Lab in CA specifically for pediatric innovation. I had 15 different hospitals reach out to set up meetings about purchasing our Kid's robe. Again, we believe we can use the Kid's robe to enter into the hospital and eventually cross-sell our other products. 

 Lastly, our goal to reach $150k+ in funding on StartEngine means we should have enough runway for the next 12-18 months. I'd be happy to set up a time to have a phone call with anyone who is interested in learning more.

By supporting Brobe's mission, you become part of a ripple effect, spreading hope, comfort, and support to those in need. Read on to learn how your investment can create a positive impact and be a catalyst for change. 

Thank you for your continued support.

Are people in the surgical category 100% of your customer base? or do you have some customers in the non-surgical adaptive clothing categories?

So, how will you build a pull from practitioners? The doctor, or the pre-op appointment people, need to have knowledge of these solutions, not necessarily to sell, but to inform patients before the surgery. A simple, "Oh by the way, you'll have drains and tubes, but there's this Brobe thing that will make your recovery easier....." could build demand. Better yet, this is what post-op provides, for a fee -- of course.

I do see the need for such a novel idea, after seeing what loved ones face with current opinions. So thank you for that. My question is, while you mention it's for men, women & children, going to your website you get impression it's only female based clothing and nothing for men. Which meant I couldn't order a gift for a friend of mine who just had heart surgery! Why the disconnect between what you mention in StartEngine offering vs what you actually offer?

With Regulation A+, a non-accredited investor can only invest a maximum of 10% of their annual income or 10% of their net worth per year, whichever is greater. There are no restrictions for accredited investors.

With Regulation Crowdfunding, non-accredited investors with an annual income or net worth less than $124,000, are limited to invest a maximum of 5% of the greater of those two amounts. For those with an annual income and net worth greater than $124,000, he/she is limited to investing 10% of the greater of the two amounts.

At the close of an offering, all investors whose funds have “cleared” by this time will be included in the disbursement. At this time, each investor will receive an email from StartEngine with their Countersigned Subscription Agreement, which will serve as their proof of purchase moving forward.

Please keep in mind that a company can conduct a series of “closes” or withdrawals of funds throughout the duration of the campaign. If you are included in that withdrawal period, you will be emailed your countersigned subscription agreement and proof of purchase immediately following that withdrawal.

StartEngine assists companies in raising capital, and once the offering is closed, we are no longer involved with whether the company chooses to list shares on a secondary market, or what occurs thereafter. Therefore, StartEngine has no control or insight into your investment after the close of the live offering. In addition, we are not permitted to provide financial advice. You may want to contact a financial professional to discuss possible investment outcomes.

For Regulation Crowdfunding, investors are able to cancel their investment at any point throughout the campaign up until 48 hours before the closing of the offering. Note: If the company does a rolling close, they will post an update to their current investors, giving them the opportunity to cancel during this timeframe. If you do not cancel within this 5-day timeframe, your funds will be invested in the company, and you will no longer be able to cancel the investment. If your funds show as ‘Invested’ on your account dashboard, your investment can no longer be canceled.

For Regulation A+, StartEngine allows for a four-hour cancelation period. Once the four-hour window has passed, it is up to each company to set their own cancelation policy. You may find the company’s cancelation policy in the company’s offering circular.

Once your investment is canceled, there is a 10-day clearing period (from the date your investment was submitted). After your funds have cleared the bank, you will receive your refund within 10 business days.

Refunds that are made through ACH payments can take up to 10 business days to clear. Unfortunately, we are at the mercy of the bank, but we will do everything we can to get you your refund as soon as possible. However, every investment needs to go through the clearing process in order to get sent back to the account associated with the investment.

Both Title III (Regulation Crowdfunding) and Title IV (Reg A+) help entrepreneurs crowdfund capital investments from unaccredited and accredited investors. The differences between these regulations are related to the investor limitations, the differing amounts of money companies are permitted to raise, and differing disclosure and filing requirements.
