Arus Men's Hood'n Full Ankle Length Hooded Turkish Cotton Bathrobe

It was hard to find a bathrobe with all the features I wanted, but this fit the bill (no, my name's not Bill). It's tough when so many websites tell you so little. I bought this robe & pretty much love it, but not before buying another robe here very inaccurately described by eLuxury, which had to be returned. This robe is as described, with LOTS of satisfied customers.Neutrals:- For me, the size out of the box was kinda dramatically larger than I expected, but after washing in cold water & drying at mostly low temp it shrunk a LOT & into a size that better fits me. I'm 5'11", 195 lbs, & I bought the XL (tag says '3'); I'm considered of average build, but muscular for my height. Out of the box the hood was pretty room (could be pulled down over my eyes if I wanted it to,but fine if adjusted), the sleeves almost covered my hands so had to be folded back (that was fine & nice), & the bottom was at my ankles or even a bit lower. After 1 wash in cold water, & dried mostly at a low temp, the hood now fits about just right. Dramatic though is that now the sleeves fall exactly at the end of my wrists when unfolded (before had to be folded back 3-4 inches), & the length shrunk up at least 3, probably 4, inches (which I prefer since I didn't want it too low). Consider buying your robe leaning toward a little extra large, knowing it will shrink a LOT, & will still shrink over the months/years.Pros:- Is high quality Turkish cotton, soft to the skin right out of the box, but softer after washed. Great to put on when wet out of the shower, pool, or jacuzzi. Microfiber felt horrible to me when I was wet.- Very absorbent.- I'd describe as a thick medium weight cotton, but not too thick. It should keep you plenty warm, but not smothering as some other heavy robes.- Has a roomy fit. It's better to have room than not enough. You want a robe that's perfect or leans toward roomier.- Navy blue color is navy blue. (some robes come a seriously different color than described).- You can put the hood up & have this sexy fashionable grim reaper look.Cons: (potential)- You may be concerned about how much it shrinks. Definitely take that into consideration when you size.- Some may think this is too heavy. It does have weight to it, but I suspect a lot of that is due to the added roomy hood & the added length. I've worn lighter & much heavier robes.- I was hoping for a bit more of a luxury feel on my skin than this, but I'm perfectly happy with this, especially considering the price. I think the (professional) pictures provided make it look a bit more shiny & (lush) than it is. But this is cotton. If you want more "luxury" on your skin, then you probably want to spend at least another $100-$300, or sacrifice water absorbancy for soft microfiber. I'm talking feel, not look. If you're looking at this robe you want cotton, less luxurious but better with water.- My robe was shipped by UPS Surepost. This added an extra 2 days to shipping time for me (total of 11 days), & I had to make plans to travel a distance to pick it up at the neighborhood (unsecure) mailboxes. If you don't know, it means UPS shipped it from the original destination to my town, then they delivered it to my local post office, whom later delivered it to my mailbox (not my door). Lots of people are unhappy with this (even here on Amazon; I'm not a Prime member, but the packaging tape on the box was labeled that). What I didn't care for was the extra time it sat around between couriers, how I had to find & have different tracking numbers for each courier, & go to each website to find out where the package is. (plus my local post office is horribly inefficient). On the other hand, who needs an emergency bathrobe. Yet still I was (gulp) excited to receive it.Think about the kind of fit you want. It took a while before I realized I wanted to err on the side of having a roomy fit in it, as opposed to putting on a more tightly fitting robe when wet or moving around the house or waving to the neighbors as I water the dog & they drive by.

Best cotton robe I have been able to find. Well worth the money and fantastic. Soft, absorbent, warm, and the xxl is great for a large man. I’m 6ft 200lbs and it fits me like a monk robe.

I am picky about size and feel. Bought the large. I am a 5’10”, 200 lb, mesomorph. I didn’t want an overly baggy cut. I wanted 100% cotton. I wanted warm and comfortable against my skin, without being a sweat box (that poly material creates). This robe is the best robe I have ever had (narrowly edging out an old Ralph Lauren robe my daughters got me almost 20 years ago that had quality + emotional attachment going for it).This robe is long (low mid-calf on me) and the sleeves are full length (I roll the cuff at the half-way point shortening them about 2 inches so they aren’t dipped in whatever I am doing). Love love love the Ocean Blue color (almost went navy) that I would describe as a peacock blue. Absorbent, comfortable and the hood is wonderful for keeping me warm outside when taking the dog out for potty-time.Can’t recommend this robe enough. Buy it for yourself. Give it as a gift. If you are looking for a robe, this is the one.

My bf loves it. He’s 6’ and 180# and says you do t even need a towel when you put it on out of the bath. It’s warm enough to walk outside in without getting cold ankles too.

This is like a wearable, hooded towel. Very thick material, pretty heavy for a robe. Comfy and breathable.

I've been searching local stores for years looking for a full length thick bath robe. Random Amazon searching and review reading lead me to this robe made by Arus Bathrobes. I balked at the price but after a month of letting it sit in my cart, contemplating whether the price warranted the purchase, I decided to give it a try since Amazon has such a consumer friendly return policy. If - upon receiving this robe - it wasn't absolutely perfect I'd return it and get my money back.There's no way I'm parting with this robe.I'm 5'10" 215 with long arms. I prefer my shirts a little on the baggy side. Whenever I buy a clothing item with sleeves I get XL-Tall so I ordered this robe in XL (black).Having said that I'm not sure how else to describe the fit of this robe than to say it like this: If I were to hire a tailor who worked with me step-by-step through the material selection, measurements, and multiple fittings to produce a robe that was perfectly made for me and my wants, this bathrobe would be the end result.Whether it's a coat, sweatshirt or bathrobe - I want a large hood, something that will continue covering me when I turn my head. The hood on this robe is outstanding! It's large without being overly large. The brim of the hood comes down over my face to the very tip of my nose (if I pull it down). The cut of the hood material is nice and rounded so that you don't have a cone head. When I pull the hood all the way forward the thickness of the material allows me to form the hood ever so slightly - if I want to see directly forward without looking down I pinch the brim and the hood stays up and out of the way (unlike those thin one-size-fits-all robes). Perfect.As I mentioned I have long arms. I also prefer long sleeves (for example I want my wrists covered regardless how I bend my arms). The sleeve length is perfect for me: With my arms at my sides the sleeve cuff ends sit between the first set of knuckles and the second set of knuckles (where my wedding ring is). With my arms bent typing this the cuff ends sit halfway between my wrists and knuckles. I do not roll the sleeves.Although the sleeves are big they're not overly big. My wife can slide her arms through my sleeve cuffs while I'm wearing this but they don't hang down ridiculously (like those one-size-fits-all robes).The two pockets are great. I can fit my large hands in perfectly without stressing the seems and they're deep enough to hold my pda, cigarettes, wallet, etc without falling out. Usually larger pockets tend to allow the pocket openings to gape open. I'm not sure if it's the material, the stitching, a combination or just blind luck but these pockets visually stay closed (unlike those one-size-fits-all robes). Nice.I don't use the belt as I wear pajama pants underneath but I will admit the belt looks good and matches the robe perfectly (again - unlike those cheap thin one-size-fits-all robes).With my 5'10" height the bottom of this XL robe just barely grazed against the tops of the middle of my feet. After first wash (recommended settings: cool water, tumble dry low) the robe bottom hovers about half an inch above the middle of my feet. No other dimensions appear to have been affected.The material is great and the sewing is outstanding. Production is top notch - I can find no imperfections.This typing marks the tenth night I've owned this robe and so far I've been doing everything I can to live in it. I love it that much. If I could find a way to wear this in public or to work I would.This robe is my first encounter with Turkish cotton and I will be replacing all of my bath towels with this material.It's everything I've ever dreamed of in a robe (can you tell I've been wanting a good bath robe for a long time?) and is worth every cent. It's five times the cost of an inexpensive one-size-fits-all robe but easily ten times the quality. This robe epitomizes 'you get what you pay for'.*Like another reviewer I'm very pleased with the Emperor Palpatine likeness I get from this robe in black. Looks like I've got next Halloween covered. :D

I’m 5’10” 185lb and the medium is too small. The “ankle length” robe hits mid calf and sleeves are 3” above hands.The robe is well made and material is nice but not as thick as I was expecting. I ordered another robe in large and will write a review whennI get it. I suggest ordering a size larger if you want it to fit as depicted.

This ia a bath robe that is well made and sewn like it is double thick. Reviews spoke of how soft it is... its not microfleece soft. Its as soft as you can expect an extremely well made very absorbant heavy cotton towel to be. If you are looking for an after shower robe. This is definately the one. Its also warm and could substitute as a comfy robe to warm up in. It is not meant to serve as an everyday housecoat though it could be used as such. I am 5’9” and 175lbs. I ordered an extra large based on reviews since i wanted something loose and wrap around. I could have gotten a medium if i wanted an exact snug fit. The xtra large is a just a bit bigger than i personally was hoping for but is very cozy. It goes over my ankles but does not envelop my slippers nor does it drag on the ground... a perfect cozy length. The navy blue is on point. A brown one could serve as a star wars jedi knight robe and the hood fits as such. If this is what you are looking for it is worth the money. I am happy with my purchase.

I bought this robe for my husband and, in a nutshell, he loves it!The robe is of an excellent quality: very nice thickness to the fabric, very soft, washes and dries well (cold wash/ low dry), and the best thing, according to my husband, is the length - he is 5' 10", and this thing is nearly floor length. He was sick and tired of the robes that just were not long enough to keep everything covered and warm, and this Arus robe is the very first one that actually delivered in that department.He also loves the hood, and double belt loops. Oh, and the chestnut brown color... such a deep, beautiful brown!The finishing is also good; no crooked or flimsy, splitting seams, no loose threads, etc.We are both very pleased with this robe, and highly recommend it to anyone, man or woman, who is looking for a nice, warm, cozy robe that will last for years to come.For size reference, my husband is 5' 10" and about 240 lbs, and the robe is XXL, and it wraps around just right, no shortage of fabric or belt to cover oneself.

Nice and long. Hubby loves it

Fits great. Warm and comfortable especially after a shower in the fall and winter months.

I am 6'2, 200lbs 34" waist. i ordered the large Arus Hood'n full ankle robe. i was worried that XL should be ordered but glad i am i went with the Large. it seems like an appropriate fit. i am not swimming in this rob, but nor is it tight. seems comfortable. before wash it was 8" above the ground and after wash it was 10" so that's quite a lot of shrinking. but then, it was a bit big so after shrink, perfect! ii have long monkey arms but after the wash the sleeves came right to my wrist. this robe is a thing of beauty. the hook you hang it on needs to be sturdy as the robe is heavy. instructions say to Air dry, no heat. well after 2 hours it was still damp, so forget that. i put it on "extra low" heat and it dried, and shrank. i compared this robe with Sears and Ralph Lauren brand and also with a rob from the Bay. I feel like Arus robe is higher quality, though a bit more money. i wish there was a Monogram option though.
