5 Different Types Of Beach Robe Available On Red Equipment

Written by Lydia Burdett /

Top-quality beach robes are a must-bring on any day out to the beach, especially if you’re planning on getting in the water. They can keep you warm, get you dry, and even provide a ready-made changing area to alleviate any awkward post-swim moments. We’d argue that you simply cannot go to the beach without one.

There are lots of different types of beach robes available, with features and functionality varying quite significantly between them. Fortunately, at Red Equipment, we’ve spent years designing and developing a market-leading range of changing robes based on first-hand experience and insight. We can prove we know a thing or two about what makes a good range of beach robes, so let’s take a look at our options. 

Pro Dry EVO Waterproof Changing Robes

One of our most advanced waterproof changing robes and an extremely popular choice of beach robe is the Pro Dry Change Robe EVO. Available in both men's and women's sizes in 8 different colours, it performs exceptionally well in harsh weather conditions, provides excellent utility as a changing robe and doesn’t compromise on style either. It’s fantastically well-suited for all sorts of activities and will perform exceptionally during your beach outings.

Key Features:

  • Fantastic Waterproof and Breathable Ratings - Rated at 15k waterproof and 8k breathable, you can count on the EVO beach robes to keep you dry and comfortable in harsh conditions. This outer shell meets the highest standards for its range, making it a real standout pick.
  • Deep-Pile Sherpa Fleece Inner Lining - Soft, comfortable and moisture-wicking sherpa fleece is used in the inner lining to add to the premium feel and help you dry off after a swim quickly.
  • Next-Level Weather Protection - The toggled hood, baffled YKK zip, external storm guard and fleece-lined zip guards all work in tandem to provide amazing levels of versatile protection from wind and rain.
  • Allows For Easy Changing On The Go - The side stretch panels allow for a surprising amount of flexibility in changing while maintaining full coverage and not detracting at all from the profile of the robe when it's worn. This is a fantastically handy feature in beach robes when you want the best of both style and practicality.

EVO Slimline Parka Jackets

Sleek, fashionable and packed with the same fantastic benefits as the EVO Pro Changing Robes, the EVO Slimline Parka is a phenomenal beachside jacket for anyone who doesn’t need the changing properties of an EVO Changing Robe but still wants to enjoy the other great benefits in style. It’s fantastic for walks on the beach with the dog, weekend camping trips or just a fashionable choice of practical outdoor wear.

Key Features:

  • Moisture-Wicking Sherpa Fleece Lining - The fleece lining inside the jacket is made using sherpa fleece, an immensely soft, durable and moisture-wicking material. It’s incredibly comfortable and will help you remain warm and cosy on your outdoor trips.
  • Exceptional Waterproofing And Breathability - The EVO Slimline Parka boasts phenomenal ratings of 15k waterproof and 8k breathable, providing exceptional comfort levels in tough conditions. The taped seams and laser-cut ventilation contribute immensely to this, enhancing the wearer’s comfort through intelligent design.
  • Great Protection From Wind And Rain - We’ve put a lot of effort into designing our Slimline Parka Jackets to ensure that the wearer has proper protection against the weather. The two-way YKK zip, external storm flap and zip guard help to keep you properly covered in poor weather conditions.
  • Plenty Of Secure Pocket Space - You have plenty of options for pockets on the EVO Parka Jacket, with a pair of two-way external pockets that double up as comfortable fleece-lined hand warmers, as well as a discreet internal pocket to keep your valuables hidden and secure, yet easily accessible at the same time.

And Other Handy Features - Completing the feature list is the safety-enhancing reflective detailing, adjustable cuffs for maximum wearer comfort and a toggled hood for additional modular protection from the weather.

The Red Equipment Pursuit Change Jackets are a stylish and practical option that lends itself well to people who are after great performance and comfort at the beach.

Key Features:

  • Fully Adjustable Hood - The fleece-lined, fully adjustable hood on this fantastic performance change jacket uses a cord-lock adjuster behind the head to allow you to fully control the snugness of the hood to your liking.
  • Comfortable Grid Fleece Lining - This technical garment is lined with a performance-ready grid fleece lining, helping to regulate temperature and wick away moisture if you’re getting active.

Poncho Towelling Beach Robes

If you love spending plenty of time at the beach, then the Poncho Towelling Beach Robes are a perfect pick for you. Available for men, women and kids, these particular changing beach robes have been designed solely for that purpose, meaning that there are plenty of design features that are geared towards giving you an easy experience in quickly drying off and changing after your beach trip’s water activities.

Key Features:

  • Oversized Design To Accommodate Convenient Changing - One of the most important aspects of the design of changing beach robes is how well it supports the wearer in changing. The oversized design provides you with plenty of manoeuvring room to change without unnecessary exertion.
  • Heavyweight Cotton Material - The 430gsm 100% cotton is ideally suited to helping you dry off quickly and comfortably. It’s highly absorbent, soft, and gentle on the skin, which is ideal for staying comfortable right after getting out of the water.
  • Deep Pocket Space - Deep pockets on the sides of the Poncho Towelling Beach Robes allow for easy storage of equipment for your water activities or simply to hold your hands in to dry them off quickly.
  • Draw Cord Hood - The hood is a vital part of a changing robe, as it allows you to dry off your head and hair along with the rest of your body. The adjustable draw cord helps to make the most of this, allowing for a snug fit on anyone to enhance drying.

Quick-Dry Microfibre Poncho Beach Robes

The quick-drying Microfibre Poncho Changing Robes are an immensely practical choice of beach robes. Their biggest draw is the use of microfibre fabric, which is an extremely useful choice of material in an adult or children’s poncho towel robe and makes it suited for a very wide range of different water activities.

Key Features:

  • Take Advantage Of Microfibre Fabric - The ultra-absorbency of the microfibre fabric we use in this changing robe allows it to quickly take on and hold up to four times its own weight in water. You’ll be able to get yourself dry in no time.
  • Draw Cord Hood And Deep Pockets To Help Dry Off - The large pocket spaces and adjustable hood help you to get your hands and head dry quickly, as well as the rest of your body, and the pockets will allow you to store swimwear or other gear to keep it safe while drying off.
  • Plenty Of Space For Changing - The generous size of the Microfibre Beach Robes allows you proper freedom of movement while you’re drying off and changing without compromising on looks, thanks to the tailored side panels and raglan sleeves.
  • Comes With Its Own Storage Bag - You’ll also get a dedicated stash bag with the robe, giving you a compact and convenient option for storing it away while it's not in use.
