Reviews

Absolutely ideal!

"This coat is exactly what I was after - lightweight, long (I'm 5'9" and the XL is to mid-shin on me), fully waterproof and comfortable enough to wear all day without overheating. The hood is an ideal size and keeps rain off my face, which was my main issue with a cheaper coat from another brand. This lightweight variation is also completely passable as a comfortable coat without looking excessively bulky or oversized. Dryrobes are certainly not the cheapest coat out there, but in terms of quality there is just no comparison to the cheaper variations out there. The on-screen colour is accurate in person, the material feels soft and genuinely good quality, and the zips/stitching on the coat are excellent - no loose threads! Would highly recommend the lightweight version for other people like me who enjoy being outdoors in all weathers, but also get too hot in the thicker/more insulated style."

— Miss K. (5/5)

Three is the perfect number

"Brilliant, still a Dryrobe but as light as a feather and folds up into its own pouch to boot. Haven't been able to try it put but it will be perfect after sea swimming. I have two Advance Robes and use them endlessly so looking forward to using my third."

— Roberta L. (5/5)

Ich liebe die Ausrüstung von

"Ich liebe die Ausrüstung von Dryrobe. Gute Qualität, schöne Farben. Bestens ausgerüstet bei schlechtem Wetter und einfach nur zum Warmhalten."

Tech lite robe

"Outstanding robe light compact quality is What you expect fantastic would buy Against Customer service for after sales good not Be better"

— MR H. (5/5)

Great packable option for a boat coat

"I recently returned from 8 days of cold-water scuba diving in Port McNeill and Port Hardy. I purchased the Tech Lite to use as a boat coat to keep me warm during the many hours I'd be spending on the boat, and it did an admirable job of protecting me from the wind and rain while we were shuttling between dive sites. Best of all, it was lightweight and packable enough to fit in my checked bags, despite flying with a full set of cold-water scuba gear (drysuit, undergarments, steel BP/W, heavy fins, etc) and underwater photography equipment."

— Eric L. (5/5)

Black Tech-Lite Changing Robe

"The black Tech-Lite changing robe really shines when it comes to its lightweight design, especially on flights. After a swim in the refreshing spring waters of the Atlantic or the Mediterranean, you’ll look forward to heading to the beach—especially when the wind is strong—so you can slip into the robe. I wouldn’t want to be without it during sunsets and evenings on the porch either—it makes spending time outdoors so much more enjoyable."

— Uwe M. (5/5)

Loving my techlite!

"Loving this light weight robe! Packs down neatly into its own zipped pouch and is going to be perfect for changing and keeping warm in the spring and summer. Very stylish and well made."

— Andree C. (5/5)

Stylish and convenient for those April showers!

"The best looking Dry Robe in their range. Is expensive for such a light robe with short sleeves. I keep mine in my car in case I get caught short in the rain. The hood sits tight against the top of my head and maybe could be made little bigger. And it’s not gonna keep you warm in the winter. Stylish and convenient for those April showers!"

— Mr C. (3/5)

excellent quality

"lightweight, convenient, easy to transport and travel. For winter too cold good for autumn spring and warm days. Looks very stylish even for simple walks. I would like more colors for spring."

— Antonina B. (4/5)

Great for travelling

"Unfortunately disappointed with this as it’s short sleeved and Not that warm. Yes it’s very packable and extremely hardy for travel and lightweight However it more is useful for say Spring and early Autumn rather than winter"

— Brett (3/5)
