Can I dry in a changing robe?

Changing robes speed up the drying process by wicking away the moisture.

Changing robes absorb moisture, dry users quickly, and keep them warm after water activities. The fleece lining inside the robe effectively wicks away moisture, speeding up the drying process.

Wrap up after leaving the water to stay warm and protected from the weather. It takes around 15-minutes to dry wearing the changing robe during the spring season.

Many outdoor enthusiasts don't bother with a towel, and dry using the inner fleece. We recommend keeping a towel at the car or for when you're back and drying yourself afterwards although it's not required.

The robes have a moisture wicking inner fleece that is warm and allows for quick drying, although they work best when accompanied with a towel.
