Comparing three sustainable changing robes: dryrobe advance, Vivda all weather puffer dry changing robe and the snugmud eco change robe. It's great to see innovations in the changing robe market with an emphasis on sustainability. I review the robes in a side-by-side comparison looking at features, look and feel, sustainability, size and my tow float stuff test. #outdoorswimming #changingrobe #outdoorlife

Disclaimer: dryrobe and Vivida sent me a changing robe to test and keep afterwards and snugmud sent me one to test and return.

I am a UK size 14-16. I followed the manufacturers' recommended size from their size charts. These are the size robes I tested:

dryrobe Advance size M [ Ссылка ]
Vivida Puffer size L [ Ссылка ]
