Growing up in Florida with no air conditioning I've never had use for a bathrode. Now as an adult I'm hot natured and still have no use for one. However my wife is cold when its 80 degrees in the house so she's the perfect candidate for a nice thick robe like the Del Rossa Hoodie. For me, all I care about is what's underneath it. For her, she's nice and warm and comfortable in the soft cotton fabric. I snagged up the black because she looks good in anything and white seemed too hotelish. The length of the robe is good and the arms are are nice and flowing. Overall I'd say it's well made and a better deal then most robes I'm read about on the net.
