Why is this better than a bathrobe, when inside, or a long coat, when outside? The utility of a draft up the back escapes me entirely.
It’s designed for sitting. I just use a blanket, but sitting on a bulky robe isn’t all that comfortable. :p
It is better than a bathrobe because you don’t have to wiggle around covering your knees when lounging, and your feet are covered. It has a high neck so your chest stays warm. Outside, worn ‘backwards’ it’s great!
