Catalonia Swim Parka for Women Men Oversized Lightweight Surf Swim Jacket Waterproof Warm Swim Coat Changing Poncho Robe

I bought this swim parka to use after pool aerobics. I am recovering from a spinal injury and the pool is the best therapy right now however it will be very cold soon and this parka fit the Bill. It’s better than I thought the Sherpa goes throughout inside. It is warm. I used it today at the pool. I have a full body rash suit I use and I got out of the pool. I use a microfiber towel to dry off put the jacket on. I did use a hat and it was 60 some degrees. I was more than comfortable and car was dry. You really don’t realize how warm it actually keeps you till you take it off in the house yeah I love this parka. It is a total Bang for your buck. For reference, I’m a little over 5’9 barefoot I weigh 188 pounds. It is roomie but there’s no way I could change inside this jacket. I have the large size. But this does not in any way take away from my enjoyment and use of this swim parka. The pockets are fleece lined, so they’re warm too. I was able to put my microfiber towel in one pocket, my hat and keys in the other pocket and my phone and ID we kept safely in the inside pocket zipped up. Last week I had to carry a Jansport backpack on wheels with all towels for the car and for me and and a hoodie today I wore a jacket and had my cane that was it. I haven’t used the zipper so I can’t comment at this point if there’s a problem, I’ll come back an update. I purchased the 44 inch I originally wanted the 47. It was not available when I put my order in. I’m not unhappy with the 44 inch. FYI: I use talk text my apologies for typos🙃 UPDATE: people commenting on the zipper. I have no problem with it. It’s a double zipper so I had both zippers in the down position and pulled only one up no problem. Weather turn cold first 40° morning. walked out of the pool in my rash suit completely wet, toweled off a bit put on my parka hopped in the car easy peasy and warm. I can’t suggest an item more.

Keeps me warm and long enough to my most of my legs (I am 5'2). Zipper is tricky but it works so far. I love it. My daughter is thinking of buying it as well. Read more

This was exactly what I was hoping for. The only thing to be aware of is that it runs big. Read more

Pros: It's very warm. My son gets out of the pool and gets warm immediately. However, I will not purchase again or recommend it to other because the zipper broke literally the second day of use. Read more

Great jacket after an ocean swim. Stops wind chill immediately. Fleece lining doesn't stick to wet skin, just feels nice and warm. Also keepsy car seat dry for the drive home. Read more

I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of this boat coat’s construction. It has a roomy fit without feeling like I’m wearing a three-man tent. The zipper worked smoothly once I got it aligned properly and the Velcro secured at my wrists well enough that the sleeves didn’t fall below my hands. While I haven’t had the chance to field test this yet, I could easily change clothes discretely under it and I think the lining will keep me warm and dry. I got this coat to keep warm during various water activities I enjoy: lap swimming, kayaking and scuba diving. Read more

This is a fantastic oversized swim jacket. It’s super warm, waterproof, and cozy. I absolutely love it! Other reviews say it was too big for them but when you order just know that it’s already puffy like your boyfriend’s hoodie. Read more
