Reviews

Hi, my son and I

"Hi, my son and I love beachvolleyball. My son is an active U18 player, and I’m involved with the beach volleyball club. We were looking for the right piece of clothing for the colder months—fall, winter, and spring. My son wears it after games to keep from getting cold. It protects me from rain and wind, so I can cheer him on from the sidelines. We don’t have any photos yet, but we’ll share some soon. We both really like your product. Best regards from Hamburg"

Wunderschön

"Habe mir den Wunsch jetzt endlich erfüllt! Muster & Farben sind sehr stylish. Der Mantel ist super! Die Qualität übertrifft wirklich andere Hersteller. Ist halt das Original :) Passform nach Bewertungen lesen und KI-Beratung auch top. Ich habe normal eine Größe 46 🇩🇪 und mit S komme ich hier gut zurecht, sitzt immer noch locker genug. Allerdings verwende ich den Mantel nur als Winterjacke, nicht zum Umkleiden. Ärgerlich war nur der Sale-Gutschein kurz nach Kauf. Ich hätte 40€ sparen können 😕"

— Julia C. (5/5)

Ich habe schon seit letztem

"Ich habe schon seit letztem Jahr einen Dryrobe. Jetzt habe ich meinem Sohn auch einen zum Geburtstag geschenkt. Beide sind wir ausgesprochen zufrieden und werden immer wieder positiv auf den tollen Mantel angesprochen. Sieht total stylisch aus, hält warm und fungiert super gegen Regen und Wind!"

— Birgit K. (5/5)

Ich nutze den Mantel um

"Ich nutze den Mantel um ganzjährig in der Ostsee zu schwimmen. Da ist es sehr wichtig sich schnell und unkompliziert umkleiden zu können. Das ist mit dem Mantel sehr gut und unkompliziert machbar, zudem hält er sehr warm und ist winddicht. Natürlich sieht er auch auch stylisch und hochwertig aus ;-)"

— Inis S. (5/5)

Functional Warmth meets Stylish Design!

"I love this parka! Perfect for outdoor plunges or swims. It is a little heavy weight for pool swimming but I think I will still use it in those settings. I love the pattern and asymmetrical color block and hope DryRobe will consider more styles like this in the future!"

— Katlyn C. (5/5)

Blue camo ladies

"Lovely blue camo outer, slightly disappointed the lining isn’t as fluffy as I thought, I imagined more fleece lined. Great length, and I can’t wait to go walking in this. Wearing it after water sports too. Originally I purchased a small fitting, being a size 10 I thought this would be perfect, but it was massive, exchanged for an extra small and still plenty of room."

— Gail T. (5/5)

Purchased 2 weeks ago ready

"Purchased 2 weeks ago ready to walk my two dogs . Last winter I got so wet and muddy from the rain and saw lots of people wearing these coats which looked very cosy and kept them dry so cannot wait to try myself . I have to say the quality looks excellent"

— Tanya E. (5/5)

We won’t travel without our robes!

"I bought a couple of changing robes (red for the OH and sky blue for myself). We used them for our trips away in the camper weather that’s an evening comfort item, a quick grab and go to the toilet/showers or a keep me warm and dry if it’s raining or at the beach. The product truly is amazing with excellent quality and fully waterproof. Its size is good, not too baggy but comfortable and private enough to allow us to get changed/dressed when we are at a campsite, the dog leads are hooked to the van door of the camper and there’s people walking up and down. Our Dry Robes quickly become one of our “can’t go without” items for its versatility. We love them!"

— Catarina R. (5/5)

Delivery was quick. But the

"Delivery was quick. But the support could'nt or was not able to help me with me discout problem. lastly I quit. I wanted to use the 10% discount but the system always showed an error while requesting it by mail. i was in contact with the support but the only answer was, send me your coupon code, which i did not receive due to the error on your site."

— Sascha R. (2/5)

Excellent.

"Quite a piece of clothing. After being told of this product, and after checking it out, I bought one as a coat, not something to change clothing underneath, to stay warm and dry, when out on my mobility scooter, while I wait on my right knee being replaced again. I have only used it once in this capacity and it worked brilliantly. It also serves as a pretty good blanket when you fancy a quick nap on the sofa !! Could do with a little loop for hanging it up when not in use."
