I surf & I've got a DryRobe one which is really good & warm, however they're really expensive now. There is something very similar made by Ocean & Earth called a Super Storm Front Poncho which is currently on sale down from £125 to £62:50. I can't do links but it's on their website under Ponchos & Towels

I'm an all season openwater swimmer, I have seen a lot of these in various shapes and makes. My advice would be that if you can afford it the original dryrobe is a superb design, very high quality materials and zip. They will last for years. Briliant things, I use it for all sorts. From watching the kids sports in the rain, sitting outside with friends, swimming, fishing etc. It was only a matter of time before this was picked up by the tackle companies.

None. Dry robes and the copies are designed for surfers etc not fishermen.
Apologies but I live in sea side town and you wouldn't believe the wallies that turn out in their finest with a dry robe or copy as a coat!
Just don't 😂😂😂
However, would like to see some catch results pictures on here with people in dry robes 🤣

I agree.
I just don't understand people following dodgy fashion trends.
Zero benefit over a normal jacket and multiple negatives. Including looking like a muppet in a big baggy thing
As previously said. Designed for people climbing in and out of the sea in a wetsuit.

I use one for paddle boarding when getting changed but i cant see any use for one in a fishing situation at all, unless you like to strip off when your fishing and sit bollock naked under one or want to look like a complete tit.
Sorry must be well out the Loop.... what is a " Dry Robe " ???

A Parka basically but oversized and lined so surfers and the like can strip off and get changed under them whilst keeping their dignity and warmth and a bit waterproof on the outside, given the conditions they are used in.
You can also Google them
