I bought this robe for my Halloween costume, dressing as a Sith (Dark Jedi from Star Wars). The fabric is thick and somewhat heavy, which made it warm but it also made it opaque and gave it the proper weight to match the style in the movies.

The hood takes some fussing to get it to fall just the right way, but once you get it there it's perfect. You can also pin it the way you like it if you want it to stay a certain way for the whole night.

Most of the robes I've shopped for this purpose were too light, partially see-through, and just plain cheap-looking. This one was a perfect fit.

I'm not a tall guy (5'8") and the XL size suits my height perfectly. It doesn't drag on the ground, nor does it show too much of my shoes/legs.

Just don't try to wear anything too heavy underneath because it is quite warm!

Pros:
 - High Quality
 - Great Fit
 - Hood is Awesome
 - Perfect look for my Star Wars costume

Cons:
 - A little heavier/warmer than ideal for a costume, but great for just a robe
 - A little pricey
