Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Scotch Plaid Flannel Sherpa Lined Long Robe

I really love the look of this. I wanted to love it. It's deceptive though. The sleeves are just thin flannel. The rolled up cuff showing the sherpa lining ends there. It's just a cuff. I thought the idea was for it to be a very warm, cozy robe. The sleeves are very cold, especially compared with the warmpth of the rest of the robe? You have to wear a sweater or sweatshirt to have your arms warm enough and that defeats the purpose of the rest of the robe. Just my 2 cents. I would have LOVED it if it truly was sherpa lined throughout the entire robe. The sleeves were too cold for me to feel cozy and warm. I was bummed. It went back. It's a cool pattern though and almost right if not for it not being fully lined.

If these type of robes had zippers more people would buy them. Zip from top and a zip on bottom You use to carry a light weight robe like that! I bought at least 3. I've been looking on your site 2 years for this or something warm and cozy similar to this. All are wrap. Do you think everyone is skinny (no larger sizes) and wraps will hold if you don't tie them tight? They just fall open! No Luck!

Not the quality you expect from LL Bean. This is a lined robe. It looks pretty but if you expect to stay warm, take it with you on a south seas vacation. If you hold it up to the light, it shines right through. The flannel lining is as thick as a kleenex and the sherpa lining makes it feel soft but so thin its hardly there. This is not a great item for northern climate or a cool morning at the cabin.

Unexpectedly disappointing. This robe is very thin and feels cheap. I have other Scotch plaid items and am unsure if the fabric here is the same as that used for shirts and bedding. Colors are the same, but the fabric feels thinner and quality feels far lower. The fleece is especially disappointing. It is not Sherpa fleece which is typically made to resemble real sheep's fleece, notably low pile and tight structure (as on the men's rugby robe which is amazing). The material used here has a long, floppy pile and is very thin and sparse (like low pixel count compared to high pixels). It looks and feels nothing like real sheep's fleece as sherpa fleece should. I can't comment on size because I didn't get that far. The poor quality was immediately evident and I put the robe back in the bag to return without trying it on.
