Ideally without a big logo on the back but does that exist?

Primark do an equivalent.

lovewoola · 14/08/2023 11:34

Without sounding like a snob ideally I'd like a bit better quality then Primark.

I have a SmocSmoc half zip (very heavy, blocks the wind well, easy to get on, not snuggly) and a patterned By Betty Blue robe which I adore. She makes them to order so can leave the logo off.

There are loads of other versions of dry robes. They all look pretty similar.

TheNinthLock · 14/08/2023 11:58

I adore my ByBettyBlue robe.

After very cold sea swimming, I wear a towelling robe with a long raincoat over the top ... when the Dry Robe came along I thought, "Oh bloody hell, I invented that. Could have made a fortune."

I have a Dunnes one, plain black with pink lining

It cost a fraction of what a Dryrobe would cost

I think Passenger also do some, Finisterre would have been my first thought and see someone has already suggested them.

WhyDoesItAlways · 14/08/2023 12:08

I've got my eye on one of these. Not bought yet so can't comment on quality etc though

elementkarbon.co.uk/collections/ekosy

Saltrock also do some.

So many alternatives:

Red
Two Bare Feet
Alpkit
Wild Moose
Smoc Smoc
Charlie McLeoud
Mountain Warehouse
Passenger
Gorrilla Robes

Brakeburn
Frostfire
Swimzi
Sola
Element Carbon

I don't love my DryRobe. I use it a lot and it is very functional, but i hate the colour and I am hankering after a Wild Moose Robe, who are a local business to me.

I need something like this for walking from the car park to the local pool - don't want to look a twat wearing something suitable for ice diving for a 20 metre dash over tarmac, but want something waterproof so I don't make the car seat damp (I hate changing/dressing at the pool). Thank you for a lot of fab alternatives; I'm going to find it hard to resist wild moose in blue and pink. I'll just have to hope people think I normally wild swim but am popping into the pool for a training session.

I have a smoc smoc in bright pink, which I love. I also have a vivida in a pale green, which is lovely and has very limited logos on it, then I won a dry robe, pink lined, with a camo outer, which is gorgeous. For the most logo free I would go with the vivida https://www.vividalifestyle.com/collections/weatherproof-changing-robes I have the Sherpa

Thank you for more links, will look at tonight.

@LadyGardenersQuestionTime I don't wild swim, just want one for swimming with dc, beach days & general comfort.

@Time40 oh no!

LadyGardenersQuestionTime · 03/09/2023 08:25

@IbizaToTheNorfolkBroads dammit payday has come and she’s sold out of the blue/pink one I wanted!
