ArusMen's Hooded Classic Bathrobe Turkish Cotton Robe with Full Length Options

So I hardly ever do reviews, but this one merits it.I bought this as a Christmas Gift for my father. The thing is, my father has owned a ratty, clorox stained, semi-sentient purple bathrobe since before I was born. Said purple bathrobe had been an anniversary gift from my great-great grandmother to my great-great- grandfather, who had stared at its funky, clunky, Austin Powers-like pattern and immediately put it away in the farthest corner of his closet. My father found it in his teens, and proceeded to wear it for the next forty-something years of his life because whatever he may say, my dear father is a hipster at heart.Naturally, since it was bought on the early 60s and has been in use for 40+ years, the bathrobe was not only a horrible-decoration-ruining-eyesore it also stunk of a terrible smell I can only describe as “moist and loud”—at least, as soon as it was used. It stank up every single article of clothing that was put on the washer with it, and everything on a four feet radius of it when it was hanged to dry. Mind you, the damn thing smelled like cinnamon and apples as soon as it dried again, a smell that I suspect it beat up our other towels to steal (at this point, when it was dry, the other towels would smell repugnant), so my father never believed me or my mother. So the damn thing stayed and we had to resort to creative way of keeping it away from the rest of both our clothing and towels. Like a creeping, sweeping plague, it would also slowly infect the towels around it with its hideous grape-marmalade-gone-bad color. I wept over my collectible brand-new Princess Belle towel, stained purple and smelling of despair and disgrace, and swore revenge for the remaining pieces that would go on to become garage rags when my mother said it was too damaged to keep using, barely two weeks after I received it.Regardless of this vow of furious vengeance, my quest remained unfulfilled until this past Christmas.The horrible, no-good, terrible bathrobe had survived all of my and my mother’s attempt on getting rid of it. Which included buying him newer and more expensive ones, secretly throwing it into the trash, Clorox baths to make it rip, one memorable time when we grew desperate and tried to set it on fire only for the damn thing to never even lit. The bathrobe reigned supreme, somehow always returning to the hanger on our bathroom door, even when one time I missed my 9:00 am class to personally deposit it on a city garbage bin while my father was out. We begrudgingly and disgracefully accepted defeat.Anyways, I did not have much hope for this bathrobe actually being put to use—it was just a joke gift destined to be donated as soon as Christmas time passed and my father did not feel guilty about it. I had already bought my father another gift, when this bathrobe was suggested to me as a “cozy gift for your loved ones”. As bathrobes seemed to have gone out of fashion and even the blood-thirst for retribution sworn by a then six year old tends to run out, I had lost hope of ever being able to replace the Purple Monstrosity. But because spite is one of the few things that keep me going on this lawless universe, I bought it and proceeded to forget completely about it as soon as it was delivered and wrapped (on time too, so you go, Amazon vendor!).Cue Christmas Day—we have all opened our gifts and have reached a point of terminal fullness when my father spots the gift wrapped box to him at the very edge of our Christmas tree. He cheers when he sees it is addressed to him and I, an idiot, encourage him to open it without opening my camera app because I couldn’t remember what I bought and I didn't want to be permanently embarrassed on the forever world of my gallery. He opens it, and through his face flash so many emotions ranging from “what in the everloving fork” to “I have finally decided who shall be the sole heir of my non-existent fortune”.This new bathrobe fits him as he wanted—not too short as to not cover his knees, but not too long as to drag on the ground. It was blue, his favorite color, and was of material soft enough so he would not complain about itching, but not so soft as to squash it’s functionality as a drying artifice. It is thin, not thick, which would have been a downside if it didn’t mean it was less weighty for his old man bones to carry.The hideous purple monstrosity has finally been disposed off. Long live the new marvelous bathrobe.TLDR: This bathrobe finally convinced my father to get rid of his old cursed bathrobe. Best thing at a reasonable price range. Don’t hesitate, get rid of your (or a loved ones) old bathrobe before it gains sentience.

I have been ordering from Arus for many years for myself and gifts. The fabric of their bathrobes used to be thick, plush and barely shrank. Just understand that the fabric used now is a bit lower in quality and prone to shrink about 2 " in length. The base of the robe seems not to wrap around the body as it used to. The hood is smaller. The fabric is slightly is thinner and may not wear as long as they used to.But, in this case, this robe is now less prone to getting too warm.I bought the dark green robe this time. The color is an absolutely beautiful deep forest green. The floor length after washing and shrinking 2" is perfect. If you do not mind the drawbacks, just order larger.I am very happy with it.

This robe is not as shown in picture. I wanted a full length as shown and it only goes half way down the leg. I am not a tall man.

Es algodón suave, es absorbente, pero ya mojada es muy pesadaLas usamos mi esposo y yo para salir del hidromasaje en el jardínY cumple con nuestras expectativas

I bought this Turkish terry-cloth bathrobe for the pool at our local Rec Center. Wanted something warm and absorbent. This robe fits the bill. I would have given it 5 stars if the terry cloth belt that came with the robe was a bit longer. Seems like a got a belt that was designed for a size Medium.

Perfect for getting in and out of the hot tub as it's more of a towel material than a traditional bathrobe. Overall the color & fit were as advertised and I am happy with the product.

He loves it and wears it all the time! I have washed it, and it does get "softer". I am happy with my purchase.

Loops are sparse. Should be closer. Like the color, length and hood. Grateful

I was eagerly awaiting this product, looking forward to a 100% cotton, full length, hooded robe.What I received was a 100% polyester, knee length robe. And it is the cheap kind of polyester that I would expect to find at a dollar store when buying a halloween costume.Completely false advertising. STAY AWAY!

To start off positive, I like the style and principle of this robe. The length started off good, near ankle. The pics look great, love the hood. That being said, the implementation sucks. I ordered the largest size they have even though I'm only 6' and 220lbs, and immediately found it fitted oddly. The belt loops were oddly high, and it barely wraps around to close at front, less than my previous robe, and while I have a few extra pounds on me, not enough to account for that to be a factor. Then there's the washing. Washed a few times since I got it, always on cold and low temp dry, but it's still shrank a bit. What was ankle length is now shin, and while it was a little tight at first, it's now a bit worse. Again, this is from the LARGEST SIZE THEY HAVE. The material itself is ok, cotton, but strings have been fraying off of it from the get-go, and it's already thinning out in wear points like the butt and elbows. I don't expect it to last a year, but I might be surprised.All in all, can't recommend it.

I got this for $65 Canadian. I will tell you now it is extremely hard to find this material and style out there for less then $100. The material is much like a towel and works great for an outdoor spa if you own one. My rob did fit a little bigger than expected however this is a good thing when it comes to hot tubs and being outside. It also allows a bit of room to shrink in the wash. I am canadian and on cold nights this works perfect getting out of the tub.

It's decent, does the job and is a little cheaper than some of the department store options but it's not as fantastic as other reviews might suggest.Thinner than I expected, I thought it would be as thick as a high quality beach towel but I'd say its more on par with a cheap/basic set.Given the price though, it's pretty good and I'm rating 4-star. Similar options at department stores are around the $100 mark.For size comparison I'm 6ft, broad shouldered and about 230lb and it fits well. Length goes to roughly half way down calf.

While this is made in Turkey it isn’t an extravagant robe. It is luxurious because the terrycloth is of quite good (but not truly outstanding) quality of the very best robes. For those you’ll pay at least triple the amount.It’s slightly lighter than I expected but considering that summer is coming I’m glad it isn’t heavier and ‘warmer’. When I say lighter than expected I don’t mean the cloth is thin/cheap, just that it isn’t a HEAVY bathrobe.I purchased the L/XL in Tall, and the fit is generally as I expected. Fairly long, it comes to mid-calf length on me (6’1” tall) and the sleeves end about 2-3” before the wrists. I don’t want them down to my hands because it’s for relaxing.The sash/tie cord is perhaps a little short (some people like LONG belts, especially those of larger waist/chest sizes, this one has about an extra 12” on each tail after its knotted) but is more than adequate for me…I also prefer the extra length but it’s certainly sufficient. I would prefer the two loops on either side to be placed lower on the robe, more on the hips as opposed to above/at the pelvis.The hood is large and has some drape, so unless you have a head the size of a basketball it will be very comfortable for almost all people. It isn’t double layered, but the cloth is thick enough to absorb plenty of moisture for those with long/thick, wet hair after a shower/hot tub/pool.As I said, it’s not the highest quality robe I’ve seen, but for the price it’s all you could want and more. I’m very happy with it so far, and as long as the stitching is sturdy enough I expect this to last at least as long as my last robe (15 years).
