I guess I should have known that an ultra plush bathrobe would be warm, but this robe is almost uncomfortably warm unless the house is cold. That said, it is soft, the length is perfect (mid-shin), and it does everything that you would want a robe to do. I would suggest, however, that you not purchase this robe unless you live in a climate with actual seasons (i.e., not Texas), as you may find it to be too warm to actually wear it.
