A swim robe, otherwise referred to as a changing robe or dry robe, is a long towelled robe that is used for changing under and warming-up after an open-water swim. Dryrobe is one of the leading brands in this type of garment, the name of this brand having become synonymous with swim changing robe.

Over the past few years, changing robes have become a ‘must-have’ for many in the outdoor swimming community.
