The Ultimate Guide to Changing Robes

If you're someone who thrives on outdoor adventure, whether you're braving cold waters, cheering from the sidelines, or just out for a casual walk—then you've probably experienced the struggle of unpredictable weather. You need a waterproof changing robe! This isn't just another piece of outerwear; it's a game-changing essential that keeps you warm, dry, and comfortable while adding a layer of privacy when you need it most.

Whether you're an avid surfer or simply love the outdoors, let’s dive into why a waterproof changing robe could be your new favorite adventure companion.

What is a Waterproof Changing Robe?

A waterproof changing robe is a versatile oversized coat designed to provide warmth, privacy and protection from the seasons. The robes are equipped with features such as hoods, pockets, zips and borg lining to keep you cosy and your belongings safe.

Why Do You Need a Waterproof Changing Robe?

To Stay Warm and Dry

One of the benefits of owning a changing robe is that it can keep you warm and dry! Whether you are emerging from a cold-water dip, going outside or just finishing a sweaty workout, you don’t want to be stood in damp clothes feeling chilly! The insulated lining keeps your body warmth in and comfortable while the outer layer repels the elements.

Privacy on the Go!

Changing out of clothing such as wetsuits and sports gear in public can be awkward and for some people. Changing robes are designed to be oversized, ensuring you have enough space to manoeuvre without the risk of exposure. A changing robe provides the privacy you need to change clothes no matter where you are!

Designed For a Wide Range of Outdoor Activities

Waterproof changing robes are not just for surfers or swimmers. They are perfect for a wide range of outdoor activities, including:

Camping: After a day of hiking or swimming in the lake, change into fresh clothes and feel comfortable as you relax by the campfire.

Sports Events: You can stay warm on the sidelines or change after a match.

Travel: Use it as a blanket or a makeshift pillow, on chilly or long-haul flights.

Dog Walking: Protect yourself from the elements while walking your furry friend! Your pup can be protected too, we offer a matching water resistant padded dog jacket making the unpredictable weather much more enjoyable for both of you.

Everyday Use: This topic is like marmite, you either love to do your everyday tasks in your changing robe or you don’t! We will let you decide.

Choosing the Right Waterproof Changing Robe

When selecting your waterproof changing robe, consider the following factors to find the perfect match for your needs:

Material: Look for robes made from high-quality, durable materials. The outer layer should be waterproof and windproof, while the inner lining should be soft, warm, and moisture-wicking.

Size and Fit: Choose a robe that provides loads of room for changing but isn't overly bulky.

Features: Consider what features are most important to you. If you frequently swim in cold water, a robe with extra insulation might be ideal. For those who prioritise convenience, look for robes with multiple pockets and easy-to-use closures.
