Product Information

Full details

The Bleubird Nordic Waterproof Changing Robe is an essential piece of equipment for outdoor enthusiasts, wild swimmers, and surfers who need to stay warm and dry before or after water activities. This unisex robe features a durable, recycled ripstop exterior and a soft sherpa-lined interior, providing a functional shield against harsh weather conditions. While it offers excellent thermal protection and privacy, its bulky design means it is less convenient for travel in small gear bags compared to lightweight alternatives.

FAQs

Is the robe truly waterproof?

Yes, it features a 100% waterproof membrane and a DWR-coated ripstop shell to keep you completely dry.

Can I use this for swimming or just changing?

The robe is designed for staying warm and changing after water activities, not for swimming in.

How do I choose the right size?

The robe is designed with an oversized fit to allow for easy changing, so choose your standard size unless you prefer a tighter feel.

Is the material eco-friendly?

Yes, the exterior is crafted from 100% post-consumer recycled plastic.

Can I machine wash the robe?

Yes, machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle with a detergent formulated for technical outdoor fabrics.

Are the pockets waterproof?

The external chest pocket is designed to be waterproof to keep your essentials safe from the elements.

Troubleshooting

Waterproofing effectiveness is decreasing

The DWR coating may need refreshing; apply a technical waterproofing spray meant for outdoor gear.

Zipper feels stiff or hard to operate

Clean the zipper tracks of any trapped sand or salt residue and apply a silicone-based zipper lubricant.

Lining smells after heavy use

Ensure the robe is fully dried after each use and wash on a gentle cycle to remove accumulated sweat and salt.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Fully waterproof design protects against rain and wind
  • Environmentally conscious material made from recycled plastic
  • Spacious fit allows for easy changing of clothes underneath
  • Soft, high-quality sherpa lining provides superior warmth
  • Multiple pockets offer convenient storage for keys and phones

Cons

  • Bulky profile takes up significant space in luggage
  • The heavy materials can be slow to dry fully after saturation
  • May feel heavy when worn for extended periods of walking

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maximize the lifespan of your robe, ensure the zippers are fully closed before washing and use a gentle, cool cycle with technical gear cleaner. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can degrade the DWR coating. For regular upkeep, simply shake off excess dirt or rinse with fresh water after use in salt water. Hang the robe in a well-ventilated area, away from direct heat sources like radiators, to allow the sherpa lining and shell to dry naturally. When storing for long periods, keep the robe in a dry, cool place and avoid compressing it under heavy items, which can flatten the insulating fibers.
