Bespoke Robes
Button Wear robes are stylish, multi-functional, quick to dry, roomy to change under, fashionable enough to wear to your local coffee shop after a dip in the ocean. Inspired by legendary swim coach, the late Brian Button, who brought out the very best in all who knew him.
The History
Button Wear began as a passion project rooted in my love for swimming and my deep admiration and affection for my lifetime swim coach, Brian Button, who sadly passed away in 2018.
Button Wear robes are made from quick-dry microfibre towelling, and they come in a range of exquisite colours. These garments are multi-functional; you can also wear them over your clothes to act as a wind shield, hide under the hood from rain or sun or simply use as a dressing gown on chilly nights.
My choice of colours was (and still is) determined by what fabrics are available from local fabric shops. There are many styling options available for both adults and kids, and the Design-Your-Own feature adds a personal touch to your own robe.

Design-Your-Own
Here’s your chance to bring out your inner creativity and Design-Your-Own  bespoke robe. You can be subdued in one colour or be creative and add a splash of esprit in the form of coloured pockets, hoods or both. Kiddies have the most fun colour blocking, and they come with or without long sleeves.
Colour choices are only limited to your imagination and to what stock is available from the supplier. This is how you do it: choose the fabric colour for the front and back of your robe, then choose your pocket colour, whether you might like a contrast colour hood or a strip of colour across the hem of your robe and finally, if you are really tall, add extra length.
Button Wear Robe Reviews :
I love my robe. It’s perfect for a quick undress into or out of my swimming costume without exposing me to the world, also there are such fun colours to choose from. Don’t go to the beach or pool without it!
Just love my robe. So practical makes changing in the middle of anywhere so easy. After a swim and I’ve put my robe on I’m warm as toast!
I like the simplicity of my robe, the light colour ensures that I stay cool when on deck. I also love that microfibre toweling has quick-dry properties. And most importantly that it protects me from the sun, especially from the reflection off the ocean.
I could not be happier, I am so toasty after a dip, just love the thickness & silky feel of the fabric, the hand turned wooden button adds a special touch, supporting local is close to my heart. Thank you for my custom fit, fits my style and height perfectly.
Getting into ice cold water is bearable knowing that I get straight into my Button Wear robe afterwards. It’s warm, dries quickly and looks pretty cool too!
I love my Button Wear robe because it’s light but warm, dries quickly and looks great. It’s easily the best swim robe out there.
Always happy to have Button Wear in Langebaan. The Floating Ducks love to slip on their quick-dry robes after a lagoon swim.
My robes are my favourite items of clothing! Wearing them make me feel cosy and grounded. Button Wear is the most stylish robe range on the market. A practical, multi-functional item and sweet reminder of late swim Coach Brian Button, just perfect!
I absolutely love my Button Wear robe. It is my go to item of clothing whenever I go swimming. It is easy on and off and comfortable to wear. I love the colour and fit. The pocket is useful too, for keys, caps and goggles. I have had my robe personalized with my name, so I know it belongs to me
An essential item my robe, it can be worn all day. I can hop in and out of water slip it on when needed, and it dries so quickly. Love my extra large pocket, handy to store a snack, my phone or keys.
