- Is a terry robe good for after a shower?
- Yes. Terry's looped cotton pile absorbs water quickly, which is why it is the standard fabric for bathrobes. It is thicker and slower to dry than waffle-weave robes.
- How should I wash a terry bathrobe?
- Machine wash in warm water with like colors and tumble dry low. Skip fabric softener, which coats the loops and reduces absorbency. Wash it separately the first few times in case of lint.
- Does the hood make it warmer?
- Yes. The hood traps heat around the head and neck, which helps after a swim or on cool mornings. It also adds bulk at the collar.
- Is it warm enough for winter?
- Terry cotton is warm for indoor use and short trips around the house, but it is not a heavy fleece or flannel robe. In a cold bathroom, a thicker robe may suit you better.
- How does it compare with a waffle or microfiber robe?
- Terry absorbs more water and feels more substantial. Waffle and microfiber robes are lighter, dry faster and pack smaller, but they feel thinner and less plush.
