For those who regularly brave the elements in pursuit of cold-water swims, having the right gear is everything. Whether you’re plunging into a Cornish cove at sunrise or warming up after an icy group swim, few pieces of kit can rival the comfort and functionality of swimming changing robes. These garments are more than just an outdoor dressing gown — they’re a must-have for anyone who wants to extend their time in the water and stay comfortable before and after the dip.

At Cornwall Swim Company, we know exactly what outdoor swimmers need. That’s why we’ve poured our experience and love of nature into designing the Generation 4.0 Changing Robes — a product made not just to withstand the elements but to help you thrive in them. 

Comfort in Every Condition

One of the biggest challenges outdoor swimmers face is managing body temperature before and after a swim. Once you leave the water, the wind, rain or cold air can hit hard, leaving you chilled and uncomfortable. That’s where a high-quality changing robe comes in. It gives you an instant warm shelter, protecting you from the elements while you dry off and change.

Our CSC 4.0 Changing Robes are built for this exact purpose. With a waterproof exterior and an ultra-warm synthetic lambswool lining made from recycled materials, you can wrap up and recover from your swim no matter what the weather is doing. The design offers full coverage, insulation and space to change discreetly, even in exposed coastal locations.

More Than Just Warmth

Changing robes are not only about warmth but also about freedom. They allow you to get changed comfortably and confidently wherever your adventure takes you. Whether you are stepping out of the ocean, a river, or a highland loch, our robe is your personal portable changing room.

The Generation 4.0 robe features a full-length reversible zip that makes changing in or out of your swimwear easy and efficient. Internal pockets give you a safe, waterproof place to store your phone and even space for a water bottle. Zipped front cargo pockets add extra room for essentials. From the welded cuffs to the adjustable wrist straps, every detail has been considered so that you stay warm, dry and fully equipped.

Designed by Swimmers, for Swimmers

At Cornwall Swim Company, we are not just selling swimming changing robes. We live and breathe the lifestyle they are made for. Our business is proudly run by Rob and Lucy, a family team based in Cornwall who understand what it means to be outdoors in all weathers. Our designs are informed by real experience, not trends. That’s why our robes have evolved over time to reflect what swimmers actually need.

Our earliest robes were lighter and great for quick cover-ups, but through feedback and testing, we’ve added more structure, waterproofing and weight to create a product that delivers real quality. The result is a changing robe that is rugged, reliable and genuinely luxurious without being wasteful. Sustainability matters to us, so our synthetic lambswool linings are made from recycled fibres, and we are always looking for ways to reduce our environmental impact while keeping performance top-tier.

Supporting the Swim Community

Our passion for cold-water swimming goes beyond products. We actively support community initiatives such as Salty Swims, which offer socially prescribed swimming sessions that promote mental health and wellbeing. Cold-water swimming has been shown to reduce stress, improve mood and foster a deeper connection with nature. We believe in making this experience safe and accessible for everyone.

Changing robes play a big role in that mission. They give swimmers of all levels the confidence to get in and out of the water comfortably and safely, without rushing or struggling with towels in car parks and beach lay-bys. Our robes make it easier for more people to enjoy the benefits of cold water, and that’s something we are proud to be part of.

Made for Every Adventure

Whether you’re a seasoned sea swimmer, a weekend wild dipper or someone discovering cold-water therapy for the first time, having the right gear changes everything. Our CSC 4.0 Changing Robes are designed to keep up with your lifestyle, helping you do more of what you love without the discomfort of being cold or wet.

These robes are built to be part of your routine. Throw it on after a surf. Pull it over your wetsuit while walking the dog. Use it as shelter during a windy beach picnic. With a hang hook for easy storage, practical features like the internal water-proof phone pocket, and the extra warmth from our fleece-lined hoods, this is a robe you will use again and again.
