Barefoot Dreams isn't the first robe/lounge brand to be expensive. For an example: Josie Natori robes are in the $100 and up range at some of the department stores where her line is sold.
I shop for robes a lot because I love them, and they are my around the house loungewear. I find that unless it's a sale, or in a discount store, most of the robes in department stores are $70 to $90, with a few in excess of $100.

I LOVE my Barefoot Dreams robe! I bought one at Nordstrom. It was only $70 plus tax on their Anniv. Sale!--well worth it!

And we all know you can't judge quality by picture. That's just lol funny. No doubt there are $7.00 robes out there somewhere and no doubt there are $700.00 robes. $126 might seem expensive to you but that's just you. A $126 robe is dirt cheap bargain for someone else. So, no. It's not at all crazy.

I used to think the knock offs were super nice, but after wearing my Barefoot one, I now know differently. Nothing in that price point compares.

I agree with that being ridiculously high for a robe, but this isn't something I wear so it's not even tempting. I have tossed many robes over the years so I know better than ever buying another one, no matter what the price.

Lori Goldstein's plush robe from last year is super hyper plush for 1/3 the price. And I'm the princess and the pea!

I love robes. I wear them every day!

I am happy to pay up for great quality. That does not include polyester.

Whenever we have a thread about polyester I am reminded, not all polyesters are created equal. (ly) More often than not, I'd rather have a synthetic robe I can launder and not worry. I've had cotton robes, wool robes and cashmere robes. A cotton robe shrunk in the wash. The wool and cashmere robes had to be dry cleaned and pilled terribly.
Whether or not this $126 polyester robe is overpriced is subjective. I remember buying my mother a Vanity Fair velour robe in 1974. It was $70. That seemed like a lot of money. (but she wanted it for Christmas) She died within a few months so I inherited that robe. I wore it for 25+ years.
You can almost always make a purchase at a price point where you are comfortable. I never understand the need to complain about items you have no intention buying.
