Product Overview
The TriDri All-seasons waterproof changing robe is a substantial piece of outerwear designed to provide sanctuary from the British elements. Whether you are transitioning out of a wetsuit or standing on a touchline in February, this robe offers a heavy-duty solution for maintaining warmth and dignity. It features an oversized silhouette specifically engineered to allow enough internal space for changing clothes while shielded from wind and rain.
Constructed with a technical focus on weather resistance and thermal retention, this robe is far more than a simple oversized jacket. The combination of a robust waterproof outer shell and a moisture-absorbing Sherpa fleece interior ensures you remain dry and insulated, regardless of the conditions outside.
Key Features
- 5000/5000 Waterproof and Windproof Rating: The fabric and taped seams work together to prevent water penetration while allowing for essential breathability, keeping you comfortable during prolonged exposure.
- Sherpa Fleece Interior: This thick, textured lining efficiently absorbs moisture from the skin and traps heat, providing immediate warmth after water-based activities.
- Two-Way Plastic Zip: The full-length zip features easy-pull toggles, allowing for quick ventilation or increased leg room when sitting or changing.
- Multiple Secure Pockets: Includes an internal zipped pocket for valuables and an internal patch pocket, alongside zipped external side pockets to keep hands warm and equipment safe.
- Adjustable Elements: Hook and loop cuff fastenings and a three-paneled hood allow you to seal out the wind and rain effectively.
Design & Performance
The TR800 is built for durability and performance. The 100% polyester construction is treated to achieve a high level of water resistance, further supported by waterproof taped seams that prevent leaks at the garment's most vulnerable points. The outer fabric has a sturdy, substantial feel that stands up to frequent use in demanding environments.
Inside, the Sherpa fleece lining is not only soft against the skin but also functional, acting as a thermal barrier against the cold. The dropped back hemline provides extra coverage when seated, and the side vents offer improved mobility, ensuring the garment does not feel restrictive despite its generous size. It is also CE Class 1 Certified, reflecting its adherence to specific safety and quality standards.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This changing robe is an excellent canvas for branding, featuring specific embroidery access points on the back and chest to ensure your logo can be applied without compromising the internal lining. For a professional, high-end finish that stands up to heavy wear, we recommend embroidery. It provides a texture and depth that suits the substantial nature of the garment.
If you require larger, more vibrant graphics—perhaps for a sports team or event branding—printing is an ideal alternative. At MyWorkwear, our Telford-based team has been perfecting these techniques since 1976, ensuring that your customisation is applied with technical precision to maintain the integrity of the robe's performance features.
Use Cases
While originally designed for water sports enthusiasts like surfers and swimmers, this robe has become an essential piece of equipment for football coaches, sidelines parents, and outdoor professionals. Its windproof nature also makes it a reliable choice for dog walkers and commuters who frequently face harsh weather conditions.

Practical Advice
Because this robe is designed with an 'oversized' fit to accommodate changing, you may find that your usual size feels very large. If you do not intend to use it for changing and simply want a warm coat, you might consider choosing a smaller size. For layering, the generous cut easily fits over heavy jumpers or sports kits without restricting movement.
Caring for your product
To maintain the technical performance of the waterproof membrane and the loft of the Sherpa fleece, we recommend a machine wash at 40°C. Regular washing at higher temperatures can degrade the waterproof coating over time.
Do not use bleach, as this will damage the polyester fibres and cause the colours to fade. When drying, it is vital to avoid the tumble dryer; the high heat can damage the taped seams and cause the outer shell to lose its shape. Instead, hang the robe using the integrated back loop to air dry.
If ironing is necessary, use a low setting only. High heat from an iron can melt the synthetic fibres and ruin the waterproof integrity of the fabric. Finally, do not dry clean this garment, as the chemicals used in the process are too harsh for the technical waterproof treatments.
