This is a very nice quality robe.  The person i bought it for was specific about what he wanted.  This is lightweight but warm, which is a hard combination to find.  It hangs nicely, has substance but is not bulky, looks masculine, and was easy to wash.

I washed it on the regular cycle in cold water and spun it on medium.  It was almost dry when it came out of the wash, so I did not put it in the dryer.  I don't think it would have shrunk, but I wanted it to look new longer, and using the dryer was unnecessary.  The color is a soft matte berry color.  It's not purple.  The color is subtle and neutral.  The tie was plenty long enough for a person who is not skinny at the waist.

His usual size would be between a medium and large, but this robe comes in only two sizes.  I bought the small/medium, and it fit perfectly and was not skimpy.  On a really skinny guy, the small/medium might be a bit over-sized.  It appears to run large.  It has a nice mid-calf length on someone 5'10".

The sleeves are neat and not large and loose at the cuff, which was another very good thing.  You can stir your scrambled eggs while you wear it without dipping the cuff into the pan.  ;-)
