I bought this for my husbnd who is always cold. My house is like a a sauna but he was still cold.  This robe solved the problem of his being cold (the house is still like a sauna).  It fits very nicely and looks good.  He would have liked slightly longer sleeve and length but men's robes all seem to have wrist length sleeves nad come to the calf for length.  He is 5'10 so the fit is true to size and as pictured.  There has been no pilling and I believe it will wash well.  A real winner for a small price.
