Our Sustainability Approach is multi-faceted
The COBE is designed with a relaxed, generous fit. It is built to be lived in — worn over a fleece, a hoodie, or a thick jumper — not to look tailored.
If you are between sizes and you plan to layer underneath, size up. If you wear it mainly as a standalone coat with lighter layers, take your usual size.
I'm Fiona. I'm 5'7", normally a size 12, and I wear a Medium. I can fit a chunky fleece underneath and still move freely. That's exactly how it's meant to feel.
Still unsure? Email us at customerservice@wildandfreeoutdoors.com and we'll help you find your size personally — we hand-pick coats for customers who want to be certain.
This coat is for you if:
You walk the dog in all weathers.
You stand on sidelines.
You swim outdoors and need something warm to come back to.
You want one coat that works from September to April without looking like you're heading up a mountain.
You're done choosing between a coat that looks good and a coat that actually keeps you warm and dry.
This coat is not for you if:
You want a close-fitted, tailored silhouette.
You want a lightweight, packable coat.
The COBE is generous in its cut and substantial in its warmth — if that's not what you're looking for, it's genuinely not the right coat and we'd rather you know that now.

We named it the COBE as the idea came from taking the benefits of a great waterproof Coat (CO) and a Robe (BE) and combining them into the perfect outdoor coat. The COBE is a waterproof coat with a sherpa lining so good it replaced my puffer, waterproof mac and changing robe. 10,000mm waterproof outer, full fleece lining from hem to hood, and enough room to pull on a dry layer after a swim if you need to. Built for the school run, the dog walk, the sideline — and yes, a post sea dip robe if that’s your thing. The main thing is you will get lots of wear, it is designed to be elegant and versatile unlike many changing robes.
10,000mm is the hydrostatic head rating — the measure of how much water pressure the fabric can withstand before it leaks. To give you a reference point, a heavy rainstorm generates around 8,000mm of water pressure. So 10,000mm means the COBE handles sustained heavy rain, not just a light shower. Coats rated at 2,000-4,000mm — which is most high street waterproofs — are not truly waterproof, more water resistant and will let water through in prolonged rain. The COBE won't. The seams are also sealed, which matters as much as the fabric rating — an unsealed seam leaks regardless of how waterproof the fabric is.
Yes — and this is one of the things that surprises people most when they first wear it. The sherpa lining is a full lining, not a thin decorative layer, and it holds warmth even when you're standing still in cold conditions. Most of our customers wear it over a light long sleeve or a thin jumper and are completely comfortable from October through to March. If you run cold or you're planning to stand on a sideline for 90 minutes in January, a midlayer underneath is worth it. But for a brisk morning dog walk, the COBE alone is more than enough.
About the same weight as a quality puffer — which is to say, you'll feel it, but you won't resent it. The sherpa gives real warmth and cosiness without the bulk of a traditional changing robe. It wears like a coat, not a duvet.
Yes. The outer shell is waterproof and breathable — you stay dry without overheating when you're moving. The sherpa lining regulates temperature better than synthetic wadding, so it works across a wider range of conditions than most waterproof coats.
You can. The relaxed cut, two-way zip and generous length give you enough cover for a quick kit swap after a swim or at the side of a pitch. If changing inside is your main use case, size up for the extra room.
A Dryrobe is designed for one specific job — post-swim warmth and changing in exposed locations. It does that job brilliantly. The COBE is designed for a different job: a coat you wear all day, in real weather, through your actual life. It has a coat silhouette rather than an oversized robe shape, a structured hood that stays up in wind, hand-warmer pockets placed at the right height, and a cut that looks at home in a coffee shop or at a school gate. You can use it after a swim — the two-way zip and generous length give you changing room — but it's not a changing robe that moonlights as a coat. It's a coat, full stop. If your primary need is a dedicated post-swim changing robe, a Dryrobe is the better choice. If you want one coat that handles everything from a morning swim to an afternoon sideline to an evening walk, the COBE is designed for exactly that.
It's what we designed it for. The 10,000mm waterproof rating handles sustained rain — not just a light drizzle — for the full duration of a walk. The sherpa lining keeps you warm when you stop moving, which is most of a dog walk. There are six pockets including hand warmers deep enough for your phone, keys and poo bags simultaneously. The hood stays up in wind. And it can be wiped down or go straight into the washing machine on a cool wash when you get home. After years of testing coats that failed in the field — literally — this is what we built instead.
Yes — it was designed with cold water swimmers in mind as well as everyday outdoor use. The COBE gives you warm, dry cover before and after a dip without the bulk of a traditional changing robe. The two-way zip and generous length mean you can pull on a dry layer underneath without full exposure. If you plan to change inside the coat regularly, size up for extra room. It's become a favourite in the cold water swimming community precisely because it doesn't scream "I'm about to get in the sea" — you can wear it to the water and straight into a coffee shop afterwards.
We size by height first, then by dress size — which is different from most brands, so it's worth checking before you order. Open the Size & Fit tab and measure your favourite coat to compare. Between sizes? Go down for a neater fit, up if you want layering room or plan to change inside it. Our Junior XS fits older kids and petite adults.
The Classic COBE comes in Olive Green and Classic Black— all with the natural cream sherpa lining. The Black Edition comes in Classic Black, Olive Green and Camel with a black sherpa lining, black zip and black rubber badge for a sleeker, more monochrome look. All colourways are designed to be timeless rather than seasonal — the kind of colours that work with everything in your wardrobe and don't date.
The outer shell is made from recycled nylon — waterproof, windproof and built to last rather than built to be replaced. The lining is natural sherpa fleece. We made the choice early on to use materials that perform for years rather than materials that look good in a photoshoot and pill after six washes. The COBE is designed to be worn daily for a decade, not replaced every season.

Honestly the cobe exceeded any expectations I had, I have even been wearing it on the warmer days just because its like being wrapped in a hug 💗 So cosy inside, looks amazing on, lots of pockets inside and out. Ive worn it on the walk to work, the kids football, after hiking to warm up or for coffee, it really is an all rounder, I'd give more stars if I could.

I was so excited to receive my package, unfortunately I’d ordered a medium and it was a little tight fitting so I needed to return. The exchange process was simple and I soon received my new cobe. I absolutely love it, it’s stylish and practical. I would definitely recommend.

Lovely coat have worn it constantly and had lots of compliments. I went for the Medium size I’m a size 12 but didn’t want it snug
Sarah 5/5 Verified
I love this coat, it's everything I need for dog walks, watching my children play sport and more. It keeps me dry, warm and isn't too bulky so I have a lot of freedom to move around and it doesn't swamp me. It's fantastic quality too.
Lisa 5/5 Verified
Absolutely fabulous coat!! Wanted something for My many pitch side days and dog walks but didn’t want something too bulky and boring …this coat is perfect for that and is much more fashionable than other “functional” coats around. The double zips make it great for ladies who maybe are larger in the hip area as yuu can undo the bottom zip and move freely
Marie-therese 5/5 Verified
I would 100% recommend you buy this coat. I bought it for a winter holiday to a very cold Riga and it felt so cosy. It wasn’t bulky and the hood kept the cold winds at bay. It is also completely waterproof as described.
Allison 5/5
I have a few coats one waterproof but not warm, one warm but not waterproof , stumbled upon wild and free site and BOOM there it was, the holy grail ,a coat warm and waterproof 🤗🤗 ordered it immediately I had to wait a little while (pre order) but it arrived three days ago and OMG I absolutely love it . It’s already pasted the test of being on the coast being battered by a storm. It is perfect in every sense warm, snuggly, waterproof, a hood that doesn’t blow off and most importantly pockets, lots of pockets . Thank you ❤️

Raincoat & Changing Robe in One - The Classic Cobe Olive Green
Just received my coat last week and went out in the most horrendous weather at the weekend. Pouring rain and wind. I was so dry and warm it was wonderful. Need one for my little dog!
Joanne 5/5 Verified
I 💯% recommend this coat!! I have never ever got a coat that is as warm and waterproof!! Honestly don’t think about it just buy it!! Worth every penny!!
Jill 5/5
Love the coat definitely waterproof and warm. Just need a cap or hat otherwise the hood doesn’t stay up or keep you dry enough especially when it’s windy.
Antonietta 5/5 Verified
Bought the Cobe to keep dry and warm whilst dog walking and it definitely does the job. There are lots of pockets to keep your phone, gloves, dog treats etc. Plus 2 hand warmer pockets with a cosy lining. I’m 5’4 and a size 12 and I bought the small which fits perfectly as a coat. If you want to use as a changing robe then I would recommend a size up. It’s well made and the sleeves are long enough too as I found on some robes they are too short. Very happy with my purchase!
Mrs 5/5 Verified
Was looking for a waterproof coat and for it to keep me warm well I got the two of them in one coat the classic cobe in black so pleased with my purchase. It’s as described would definitely get this if you are going wild swimming or for everyday wear.

This beanie is so cosy on and does not itch at all. The colour is beautiful with my olive green cobe. A very happy customer.

I needed a long waterproof coat for taking my niece to and from school. I have been researching for weeks lol and came across Wild and Free website. I was really liking that they are from the North of Ireland, as am I. The coat is perfect, I love the olive green it is light to wear on school runs but very cosy and I know if it rains, which it will in NI. I am covered lol. I ordered M, I am 5ft 6 and wear a 16 uk. It is snug but the L would be too big as I am currently fly on a weight loss journey. 3 stone down so far. Thanks

Delivered within 48 hours and looks the perfect outdoor winter coat! Not had chance to wear it yet but it has a lovely soft and warm inner, numerous functional pockets and a hood that will stay up in the cold winds. Looking forward to wearing it on winter dog walks and freezing cold football matches in the rain

Wasn’t keen on the bag but I’d of rather of had money off the coat than the free bag when I ordered

Carol 5/5 Verified
So much nicer than a Dryrobe as it's more like a coat and so cosy. Like the way the sizing is based on height. Order arrived promptly and loved the navy black edition.
Brenda 5/5 Verified
I love this coat. It has protected me from wind and rain and is warm without being too warm…. Love the deep pockets. My only reason for dropping a star is that when the hood is up it’s a little short in depth. I am 5’10” and have the large, the coat as a whole is perfect but I think the hood depth is made for someone with a shorter neck than me as the top of the hood tugs on the top of my head. Shame - otherwise it would have been perfect!

The Wooly Warmer Bundle - Beanie, Gloves & Snood in Gift Box
A fantastic coat, warm and cosy, not tried it in torrential rain yet but looking forward to it 🤣. Only complaint is I couldn’t get hold of them to increase my postage to 24 hour. (My fault for not doing it at the time) sent 2 emails to them first thing and talked to the bot. Eventually they got back to me late afternoon to say they had sent it. Could not find a telephone number anywhere.
Ann 5/5 Verified
Very pleased with the quality and fit.
