Plush Microfiber Robe - Soft, Warm, and Lightweight - Full Length

This is the robe I've been looking for. I had ordered a verrrry thick (and equally long) terry robe a few weeks earlier and just found the extreme weight of it to be offputting every time I reached for it. I thought - I do need the warmest robe (and full ankle length) I can find, but does it really have to be SO heavy? Then I went searching and found THIS robe - got it today and it envelopes my body wonderfully just like the terry robe, but it's LIGHT. Thick, plush and light. I am every bit as warm, but far more comfortable, and it has a really good quality fluffy texture -- doesn't look cheap or tacky as some micro fiber or synthetic robes I've seen which have more of the look of fake fur or a skimpy uneven pile or a "trailer trash" look; grungy, old and lived in from day one. No, this robe looks luxurious and evokes a spa, and somehow as thick as it is, it even manages not to make you look enormous, that part was a surprise.The only thing I would wish if for another 2-3 inches in length. I am 5'9", 140 pounds, and ordered the large. I really couldn't go with X or XX Large just for more length - the bottom of the robe comes to 7 inches from the ground (or 3 inches from my ankles) - pretty much like the photo of the man - it doesn't come as far down as the one the woman is wearing (clearly she's shorter). I get that robe makers can't please everyone and I'm somewhat tall for a woman so they can't make robes long enough for me that would drag the floor for other women. But I wish it was longer anyway. I do feel the draft on the few inches of my exposed ankles. And no I don't want to bend my aching back in the morning to struggle with pulling on socks in the morning before I have my coffee. The whole point of a robe and slippers is you just stumble groggily and slip easily into them and done - an all-in-one solution. Oh well, otherwise this robe is as good as it gets - I combed the entire internet comparing them all.

This robe is everything I hoped it would be! Just got it, and I love it!! It's soft and warm and cuddly, and yet it's not heavy feeling to me. I don't think this is a robe to wear when you get out of the shower. This is a snuggly, watch TV, sit-by-the-fire kind of robe.I ordered the Large in the Almond color. I'm 5'6", with short legs, and about 130 lbs. with average measurements for that height/weight. I like plenty of wrap-around in a robe, so the size large is perfect for me, but some people would think it's too big. A medium actually would probably fit me "normally" without so much wrap-around.When I have it cinched around my waist, the length is about 2 inches above my ankles. The sleeve length is great for me, but I guess some people would think they are a little long, since I got the Large. They go over the top part of my hand, and I have normal-length arms. They could be rolled up, too, if you wanted.I really like the almond color. It's like a stuffed teddy bear.Can't wait to wear it when it's cold when I'm visiting the mountains!

I am very pleased with the robe's warmth, soft touch and weight and fit, but I would love to be given the option of a tall size for robes. I do understand the difficulty this represents to companies, but maybe there could be an un-hemmed version that we could take to the tailors. If un-hemmed robes were available, we would have the ability to make it the garment full length and keep our ankles warm. Cold feet are one of the main problems for many people, and a full length robe is a much more elegant look than one that is cropped at the ankles. Of course, if it came un-hemmed, one could also crop it at the ankles if that is the desired length.I expect this robe will wash and dry like a dream, too, although I haven't tested it yet since it is a gift. The only other suggestion I would make is that I would love to have options of having an option of maybe a few very feminine robes with gorgeous A lines with flattering colors (like this cranberry color) suitable for new mothers and Valentine's Day and Mother's Day and Christmas, etc., to remind women of their feminine beauty without sacrificing cozy!...with matching slippers!!!

First of all, I was able to get this robe for less money than on the Plush Necessities site. I would normally wear a medium but purchased a large to assure it would be snuggly and comfy. Well, this robe runs LARGE and when wrapped around me feels like a blanket. I am keeping it because it will serve my purpose for wrapping up and reading, watching TV or lounging. It is very very warm, the fabric is thick and plush. It is not the soft fluffy fleece or microfiber you will find in the malls. If you get warm very easily or live in warm climates, this will be too heavy. If you want to feel like you are snuggling in a cloud and staying toasty warm, then this is perfect. The light blue is a very light soft color and will definitely show stains easier than the darker colors.

I would have given this 5 stars, and perhaps should have. This robe is seriously warm (and cuddly) which is what I wanted. The Almond color is lighter than I expected, just barely off-white, but my cat's hair doesn't show on it which is why I wanted a light color. I am still torn whether I should have gotten the XXS instead of XS. I like the extra two inches in length the XS gives me, but it really is VERY wide on me. Trade-offs.

This robe is soft, warm, a bit on the large size and altogether very cuddly. People looking for a truly full-length robe will find it here-none of this three or four inches above the ankle business. I have washed the robe and am pleased that it did not shrink or become pilled . The color (which though called charcoal, to my eye has an underlying hint of blue) did not fade. The armholes are generous, the sleeves long enough to turn up should I want to do some chores. The lapels are nice and wide and the inner tie actually is long enough to tie and of the same material as the robe, so no cold satin against the skin. I recommend this robe for anyone who wants comfort and ease when they put on a bathrobe. Amazing!

Love love love Runs very large but it’s so cozy to wrap yourself up in. Pricey but worth every penny. not stretchy is my answer to the lady who wanted to know. love love love. l bought the small as it's unisex and knew it would be plenty large
