Brobe International, Inc.

Brobe is changing the way people recover by providing quality, functional products that give patients a more comfortable recovery time, independence, and peace of mind. Our flagship product, The Brobe is a luxurious robe with a built-in attached bra designed for women throughout different stages in their life, like cancer treatment recovery andchildbirth. The first functional, yet feminine garment for women, designed specifically for women with breast cancer and for nursing mothers. We are first to market, and constantly researching new opportunities to help people heal beautifully.Today, the Recovery Brobe features two pockets on either side to host post-operative fluid drains. The detachable Recovery Bra, also sold separately, features inside pockets for ice packs and/or prosthetic breast. Its Velcro front-closure makes independent dressing easier and more comfortable. The robe’s ¾” sleeves allow for easy IV access during treatment and the fabric is durable, yet luxurious for comfortable wear. It has become the FIRST bra + robe combination designed for breast cancer recovery, made to be worn before, during and after recovery. Since then we’ve expanded our line of recovery accessories with the Shower Belt by Brobe.We are constantly seeking new opportunities to help people feel comfortable while they heal. After the success of the Recovery Brobe, a new group of women – new and expectant mothers – raised their voices, asking for a functional, yet feminine nursing garment for wear in the hospital and at home. In 2013, the Mommy Brobe launched, featuring the same high-quality design in a bra + robe combination specifically for breastfeeding. We focus on the patient's wellness, not their sickness. Our hope is that we can empower each person to regain their independence, dignity and sense of control to overcome some of life's most challenging physical curveballs.
