Dryrobe’s mission is to inspire, enable and improve the experience of an active outdoor lifestyle, for everyone. By creating a product that didn’t exist before, we made changing outside easy, warm and fun; expanding the limitations of your comfort zone and enhancing participation in life's extraordinary moments.
The world’s first outdoor change robe
First launched in 2010, dryrobe® is the original weather-proof change robe. Since then there have been plenty of imitators, but none come close to its quality or performance.
Designed and developed by surfer Gideon Bright, no expense is spared in the construction of dryrobe® change robes. Whilst the concept of the garment hasn’t changed since its inception over a decade ago, the quality of materials and the design has continuously evolved, with performance and durability always at its core.
Performance Technology
Often imitated, never bettered. The dryrobe® Advance is the original, weatherproof, outdoor changing robe. Built with performance at its core, it’s been designed to warm you up quickly and improve recovery after getting out of cold water.
To put this to the test, Manchester Metropolitan University Institute of Sport undertook an independent research study to investigate the effects of wearing a dryrobe® Advance after cold water immersion (compared to a towel and foil space blanket).
Their results show that wearing a dryrobe® Advance after getting out of cold water can have significant benefits, including helping to lower heart rate and increase skin temperature, as well as improving thermal comfort and thermal sensation levels.
Not every robe is a dryrobe®
Looks like a dryrobe but is it?
There’s only one real dryrobe®. We are proud to have created the world’s first outdoor change robe and over time there have been many imitators and change robes that have popped up and occasionally these get described as 'dryrobes'.
The term dryrobe® is in fact a registered trademark. We need our customers to know when they buy a dryrobe® they are getting the trusted performance of a genuine dryrobe® product.
What makes the dryrobe® Advance lining better than the rest?
Built with performance at its core, the unique inner fleece lining is what really sets the dryrobe® Advance apart from other change robes on the market. Through years of extensive development, we believe that our fast-drying, super-warm lining is the perfect balance between feel and performance.
Weather Resistant
The outer shell fabric is waterproof up to 10,000mm. BIONIC-FINISH ECO® water-resistant finishing combined with heat-sealed seams creates a solid barrier against wind and water. Made from 100% recycled nylon.
Super-warm lining
The advanced synthetic lambswool lining not only keeps you warm, helping to maintain your core temperature, it also wicks water away from your skin helping you dry quicker. Made from 100% recycled polyester.
Large fleece-lined hood
The large hood not only keeps you covered during the heaviest of rain showers, but is lined with synthetic lambswool to keep your head warm and dry.
Two-way YKK® zip
Unlike a changing poncho or towel robe, the front zip on the dryrobe® Advance allows easy access for getting changed. The two-way YKK® zip allows you to open or close the dryrobe® Advance from the inside.
Pocket space
Two fleece-lined external zip pockets keep your hands warm, an internal waterproof zip pocket is perfect for your phone/wallet, and a large soft-lined ‘poacher' pocket is designed to keep your swim/sports gear safe.
