Well made, high quality and warm, buy it!
This is my second Robe from Red (first was high jacked by a family member)
So this is both a review and comparison to the older model.
I 'm a design and research nerd, and looked at many different brands before purchasing. Red not only seemed to have the most thoughtful design, but also many high ratings too. Doesn't hurt the robe is also extremely stylish.
Price may seem high, but it's evident that alot of thought and care went into designing this robe. The materials and zippers are top notch.
It's a well made piece of kit. It's warm and waterproof. I've worn this in the single digits with howling winds wearing just a t-shirt and sweat pants and felt completely insulated and dry.
The fleece lining is very soft and feels great against the skin, though I haven't used it after a swim yet so can't speak to if it's as effective when you are wet as was the previous model.
Slight re-design of the hood is excellent, the added brim is a great addition. In the cold or a snow/rain storm you really feel protected from the elements.
You will definitely appreciate the fleece lined hand pockets too.
Love having an external chest pocket which perfectly fits a phone, and the internal wallet pocket is very handy.
The addition of the perforations along the bottom interior of the coat is also a smart choice.
BOTTOM LINE: If you need a change robe, get this one, it does what it's supposed and looks great too!
On sizing, I've tried both the M and L. I'm 6'1 and not skinny,…
