It seems like everyone (and their dog) has discovered the joy of slipping into a changing robe recently. Whether it’s keeping cosy outdoors in the evening on hols or getting a bit of privacy on the beach after a swim they’re becoming a must-have summer accessory. With the Pursuit, Red Paddle have gone all out to deliver the ultimate changing robe, combining the style and good looks of a jacket with protection and comfort to create a really versatile bit of kit. Discrete zips allow you to switch it from a jacket and open up the space inside allowing plenty of space to change from wet swimwear. The fully waterproof and recycled fabrics are lightweight and substantially reduce the bulkiness you’d usually expect with changewear, making it far more packable and ideal if you’ll be taking it in the car or van, or even heading into the hills to find a Tarn or Loch for an open water swim session.
Red Paddle Co boards come with a five-year warranty as standard – and if you think that sounds generous, it's because virtually no-one needs to use it. Their paddleboards are so well built that they've literally driven a 22-tonne digger over one without breaking it, and warranty rates stand at a staggeringly low 0.5%.
The same goes for the rest of their gear too – from beautifully made waterproof backpacks with super-strong welding, to hybrid changing robe/parkas that'll take you from the beach to the high arctic and everywhere in-between. This stuff isn't cobbled together overseas by the lowest bidder – it's designed and purpose-built in Red's own Devon facility, drawing on more than 15 years of experience and an uncompromising attitude to quality.
We've had a good old nose around their Totnes HQ, and what we really love about Red is the way their kit is engineered to be portable and versatile for multi-activity adventures. Sure, you can just chuck their compact inflatable boards in the back of the car and have a splash about at the beach, but they’re so packable that you can also stick them in a backpack and pony them up to remote mountain lakes, or spend a day paddling downriver and get the train home. Your imagination really is the limit.
This is seriously well-engineered gear that's built to perform and to last, and we're right on board with that.
