not as heavy as I expected...maybe thats the one upside of terry...my wife says its a perfect 3 season robe but the terry cloth will come out in the witer for the added morning warmth.  We bopth think the fit and finish are perfect and I would order up a size as some review sudgested my wife is tiny  (5'4" 117#'s) and a small was a perfect fit with not too much extra room.
