Its substantial 380 GSM weight provides the same heft and moisture-wicking absorbency as your go-to towel, but is still lightweight enough to wear over a pair of pajamas. Slip it on after a shower and you're dry in seconds — or just comfortably wear it while curled up on the couch,” explains our contributing editor, Zarah Kavarana, in their Brooklinen Super-Plush robe review.
