i bought this for my elderly mother.  i liked that this robe comes in sizes as she "drowns" in one size fits all type robes.
it is very soft, has 2 pockets and i love the fact that the robe tie is attached at the back.  i wish all robes came that way!
HOWEVER, be aware this robe is very lightweight.  good for the hot s. cal summers, but i wouldn't suggest it for warmth.
stripes are cute and a little more fun than just a solid color.
