This imperfect item is non-returnable and non-refundable.

Important: This garment is not perfect. It's is being sold at this special price because we've recently revised our design and it now doesn't meet our extremely high standards of product quality. 

While it doesn't meet the normal Vivida standard, it's still a perfectly functional changing robe coat. We didn't want to add perfectly useable items to landfill, so instead, we're embracing the imperfections.

---

Get changed, keep dry & stay warm with Vivida's technologically advanced, eco-friendly, insulated & waterproof All Weather Sherpa Changing Robe. This changing coat is designed to shelter you in every weather condition, elevating the ease and comfort of changing for waterside adventures, all year round. Enjoy the Fossil Black colourway‚ a serene and dusty grey tone of a volcanic, earthy black, providing contrast to the rich pigments of a natural landscape.


Sustainably made of recycled fabrics, the high performance outer shell is your first defence from the elements; the cosy Sherpa fleece lining keeps in the warmth whilst wicking away moisture. Thoughtful features, such as an easy-grab two-end zip for flexibility when changing, and the ability to pack down into a tow float or transform into a travel pillow, makes this your new adventure kit essential.


Come rain or shine, this waterproof changing robe is the ultimate outdoor companion for:

  • Oceanside explorations, wild swimming, lakeside dips, cold water immersion
  • Camping & road trips
  • Country dog walks & nature escapes
  • Apres-surf beers & firepit moments
  • Sporting events & touch-line warmth
  • Body cool-down; after yoga shavasana, marathons, mountain-biking

We stand behind every item we make and have performance and wearer tested each item, to make sure you are satisfied with the product. This item does not meet our usual Vivida standards but it is still perfectly functional.

Your Changing Robe will retain its waterproof properties for longer if you follow our guidelines. Read our detailed care instructions and tips.

 

Between uses:

  • Does not need regular washing
  • If covered in mud or sand, gently brush it off & clean with damp sponge
  • If damp when put away, remove as soon as possible from your pack-away bag to prevent mould. Do not store wet for a long time
  • Dry at room temperature between uses
  • Never expose to heat sources e.g. fires, radiators etc.

 

If machine is wash necessary:

  • If absolutely necessary, this garment is machine washable; however, we recommend washing by hand. 
  • To prevent compromising the efficacy of the waterproof outer shell fabric & waterproof membrane, washing should be limited.
  • Wash your Changing Robe inside out, with all zips closed to protect the shell and waterproof membrane
  • Put inside a Guppyfriend Washing Bag to reduce the flow of microfibres into our water systems.
  • Gentle, cool wash at 30℃, with a mild detergent & line dry out of direct sunlight (do not tumble dry or dry clean)
  • Wash separately
  • Do not use fabric softener
  • Do not bleach
  • When absolutely necessary, cool iron on reverse

 

Replenishing water-repellency:

  • This garment is treated with a Bionic Finish® Eco PFC-free durable water-repellent coating, allowing water to bead-up and roll away. 
  • After lots of adventures, or after having been washed several times, it may be time to put on another finish on the shell of your Changing Robe with a DWR treatment such as NikWax.

 

Play safe:

  • Caution: this Changing Robe is heavy when wet - be careful around water and never wear in water 
  • Keep away from fire
