Great Robe |
| Rating: |  |
| Read the reviews about how great, comfortable, big, comfy etc, etc. It is all those wonderful comment. One woman stated her husband never takes it off. I find myself in that situation. It looks and feels good on. Both are a matter of taste. So I will get to sizing. I am 5'8" 150 lbs., I normally wear 36 to 40 size in suit jackets depending on what ever. I am square shoulder so things hang on me well like a coat hanger. I ordered a small and medium to try them out against each other. The small was longer and fuller in the front. The back was a comfortable width on both. The small caught me around the ankles when I walked, the medium, about 4" shorter and falling just underneath my calf was more comfortable. The small also made me look frumpy so I kept the medium. Sleeve length if for a tall person. It has a 4.5"-5" cuff and if you fold it up it is a normal length. You can fold it up twice and get a 3/4 sleeve without it getting too bulky. It does have a substantial amount of fabric, so if you fold it a third time it feels like you have water wings on but not a blood pressure sleeve. I order the navy and I am happy with the color, very dark. |

Great quality robe |

| Gave this to my teenager (13) as a gift, he usually wears a medium to large in men's . I ordered the large knowing he would use this robe for several years, but it literally hung to the ground, so we exchanged for the medium. It fits him well, still a bit long but that's fine as he expects to grow several inches in the next few years. He loves the robe for after the shower, this product will look great and last for a while as it is constructed well and the fabric is heavy/nice. Very plush but not overly bulky. We were very pleased with the exchange process, fast and simple- no problems. I ordered several items for Christmas [...]) we were pleased with most and the 2 items we needed to exchage , thankfully were handled without any hastles.[...] Refreshing! |

Awesome Robe |

| Great to dry you off or just keep you warm during those chilly winter nights. The only catch about this robe is that it's much, much larger than the size says. I got a small and if it were any bigger it would be unwearable. My brother fits nicely in it and he wears a size 52" jacket. I wear a 40. I ordered a medium initially because it said medium would fit a 40 on the size chart but I had to send it back and get a small. Oh yeah, another thing a really love about it is that it goes down to my ankles which is really nice when you're cold and without pants. |

Excellent Dense Cotton Robes |
| Rating: |  |
| Purchased two for myself and one for my girlfriend. I'm 5'9", 150lbs. and normally wear a medium and found it to be a bit large. However, these robes are designed to fit many body types within a size since they were made for high-end hotels. The sleeves are made to roll-up. If you have gorilla arms then don't roll them up. Also, wash it and dry on high heat. It will dense up and the length will shrink 2 inches which is good. They are long. For my second one I purchased a 'small' to fit a bit snugger. I'm still using my medium just as much as the small. These robes are extremely comfortable. |

Cotton Robe |
| Rating: |  |
| This beautiful robe is all, and more, than I could ask for. I ordered the size large and found it to so generous that the hem reaches the floor and the sleeves must be rolled up to get my hands out. I'm not returning it. Instead, I'll wash it in hot water and run it through the dryer hoping it shrinks. I don't know why I've held off so long to buy a bathrobe. Its something I've needed for so long. If it doesn't shrink I'll have to cut and hem the length and sleeves. |

TERRIFIC Robe |
| Rating: |  |
| [...] I ordered two XL for use with our hot tub. They are big, comfy and very reasonably priced - up to half what other stores were charging! I have to roll up the sleeves on mine, but other than that they are perfect for my medium frame. My XL hubby thinks they fit him great, too. I washed them before wearing and they came out soft and fluffly and very wearable. The only "con" would be the weight - they are VERY beefy. Not thin, cheap terrycloth typically found in other robes. |

Good value but not perfect! |

| I got this robe to replace my old & worn out terry robe and it does a nice job. I love the extra length for warmth on my legs. The fabric is very heavy (and warm!), but for 100% cotton it is a little stiff (as others have mentioned). My only major complaint is the amount of lint the robe sheds. I washed it (twice!) and ran it through the dryer before wearing. The dryer caught a large hand full of lint in the dryer's lint trap, but the robe still sheds some. |

Great robe, just as expected! |

| This robe was exactly what I expected based on the description and reviews that I read. I ordered it for myself - I am a female and about 5'7 and I ordered the small and it is perfect! It goes almost all the way to the floor and the sleeves are very long. It is SO thick! Great for cold climates for lounging and after baths, or walking to the hot tub. I would not recommend it for warm climates unless you are cold natured. |

Stumped |

| I can't express how disappointed we were with this item. It is well made and all of that but it was huge. My husband who wears a large or x-large was dwarfed by it. I ordered large first and then a small. It was still at least 10 inches too long in the sleeves and skimmed the floor. I have never seen anything like it. He is not a small man. He would have loved to have it but it didn't come any smaller |

Comfortable and warm! |

| Great price on a great robe. It's not quite as soft as I'd hoped, but plenty warm enough for our cool high desert nights. All the robes I've looked at have been too short...barely reaching my knees. This is a nice, heavy robe that reaches my ankles...EXACTLY what I was looking for. The sleeves are a bit long (and I have longer than average arms), but easily turned up. A tremendous value. |
