At UltraSwim 33.3, we’re always looking for ways to enhance the experience and safety of our swimmers. That’s why I’m thrilled to announce our partnership with Red Equipment, a brand that shares our commitment to quality, performance, and sustainability. This collaboration brings a key addition to our event’s safety and comfort arsenal: the Red Equipment EVO Pro Changing Robe.

Our swims are tough. Whether it’s the physical challenge, the cold water, or the unpredictable elements, each UltraSwim 33.3 event pushes swimmers to their limits. And when a swimmer needs to exit the water early due to the cold or finishes a challenging swim feeling the effects of exposure, having the right gear to warm up quickly is critical.

This is where the Red Equipment Changing Robe comes in. Designed for ultimate warmth, protection, and ease of use, this super waterproof robe is a game-changer for our event. Made from repurposed materials, it aligns perfectly with UltraSwim 33.3’s sustainability values while delivering premium performance.

Red Equipment’s reputation as an international leader in high-quality outdoor and watersports gear makes them the ideal partner for us. Their commitment to innovation and sustainability mirrors our own, ensuring that our swimmers not only get the best experience but do so in an environmentally responsible way.

UltraSwim 33.3 is a unique event format that combines challenging multi-stage open water swims with stunning global locations. It attracts an incredible community of swimmers from all walks of life— adventurers, endurance athletes, and passionate water lovers who come together to test their limits and share in an unforgettable experience.

We’re excited to integrate the Red Equipment EVO Pro Changing Robe into our safety and support system, providing our swimmers with top-tier protection when they need it most. But that’s not all— our Ultra+ clients will also get to enjoy a great Red Equipment brand wooly hat, perfect for keeping warm pre- and post-swim.

"Red exists with a single mission - to get more people on the water with equipment that delivers an uncompromising experience. After seeing first-hand how poor kit can spoil a great day, we set out to raise the bar.

As we’ve grown, our mission hasn’t changed - and partnering with Ultra 33.3, with their relentless attention to detail and world-class experiences, is a perfect match."

John Hibbard, Red Equipment Founder
