Changing/dry robe

Seeking advice and recommendations for a changing robe please! Would love to avoid the faff of showering at the pool and pull one on, drive home and wash there. Not for beach use. Thanks!

If you are just wanting it for to and from the pool, don't spend silly money. Would an oodie or similar do? A long coat? Or a toweling poncho/change robe? I have a thin poncho I made out of Turkish towels/peshtemal which is great as it's not to heavy to lug around. I also have a big bulky changing robe/dry robe that I bought last winter for outdoor swimming.....but, I don't really use it and I'm swimming outdoors in Scotland. I get dry and changed under my towel poncho and once I'm dressed I find my long winter coat is far warmer.
All of my swim buddies use them though! Some of their favourites are the red robe, wild moose robe, passenger. I did see the regatta one the other day and the fleece was lovely and soft, but again, maybe a bit much for what you are after.

I love my dry robe. I live in it from October to March! Football and beach and I’m always toastie. I’ve had it a year and it still looks brand new
