I'd read other reviews that said this robe ran small, especially around the bottom, and so I ordered a larger size than my previous robes from other manufacturers. Surprisingly, I found that even this larger size does not close across the bottom! (Not the metaphorical "bottom," meaning "rump," but literal bottom of the robe.) It's not like my legs are gargantuan tree trunks or anything, and yet the robe gapes unattractively at the bottom. It fits the rest of my body fine, but pretty much my entire shins are exposed when I move, and my knees and even occasionally upper thighs when I sit, which isn't really what I'm looking for in a bathrobe that is intended to be *warm*. I'm probably going to exchange it for the next larger size, but I'm unsure whether the bottom edge will close around my legs, even if I get the largest size possible, as it seems like a design flaw common to all the sizes, from what I can tell.

On the positive side, the fabric is extremely soft and comfy, and the colors are bright and cheerful, reminding me of the Fruit Stripe Gum of my childhood. If only that were enough. Shins need love too! Don't leave them out in the cold!

ADDED: I did exchange this robe for the next size up, and it is overall a bit bigger in the back, shoulders, etc., but there still isn't enough fabric width to keep my legs covered when I move and sit. Maybe if I was going to only wear this robe to walk from the shower to the bedroom to get dressed, it might be okay, but it isn't comfy for any kind of lounging. No wandering down to the kitchen to have breakfast before you get dressed ... unless you want very cold knees and a possibility of indecent exposure while you eat your bacon and eggs.

Sadly, I've decided to just return this second, larger robe, and give up on trying any additional larger sizes. In this second, larger size, I really don't notice a significant improvement in the width of the fabric around the bottom, so I can't imagine going up to an even *more* humongous size would help much. Ah well.
