Medieval Priest Monk Robe-Hooded Cap Cloak

Fitting: I was first skeptical on which size to choose from, and how it would fit, but I bought a size up, and it fit perfect. It it big, sure, but the rope really shapes it to fit how it should, with just the right amount of length. I am 5' 10", 140, Slender, and I bought a Large, and it fit absolutely perfectly. With the rope tied around my waist, it fit much better, and had a little drag to it, which is how it's supposed to look. The only problem I had was the hood. It was a bit big, and with a little gust of breeze of air, it blew off. But that can be fixed.Quality: This is perhaps the most well-made costume I've ever got. It is sewn really well, with Wrinkle-Resistant Fabric, that is thick, strong, durable, and overall well-made. This is nothing like the cap you'd get at Party City or where ever. Amazing quality, for a reasonable price. Definitely worth it.The rope was well made too, durable, and made of cotton. Really 'Ties' the costume together... (lol.) The cross was a nice touch too, works well with the overall look. The hood was made of the same Fabric as the robe, and isn't exactly pointy, but not round. It is a big hood, but it is adjustable, by how much you pull it down over your face.If you're deciding on which size, go a size up, it'll fit just how it's supposed to (In the stock photos), with the rope tied.I used this for my Halloween Costume this year (MMXVI), I was a Plague Doctor, and it worked perfectly. All of the other robes I was looking at, this was perfect, because I was looking for one with a shoulder cape/ detachable hood, and a rope. Check out my pics.

I was the Beau of Satan's Ball with this costume. Well, not really, but many people thought it had demonic overtones.It's good quality, fits well (I'm about 6'2 or 6'3 and weigh between 190 and 195), and is easy to care for (it irons well). One guy said if you have big guns or something of that nature, it might be too tight. First off, no guy should say he has big guns, but he would be right I imagine. I'm on the slender side, and the costume fits almost perfectly. It hangs down to the floor, and when I walk, only a little bit of shoe shows. The sleeves cover my hands until I wave, whereby you can see about 3/4 of my whole hand. The sleeves are not as roomy as the seller's model in the photo indicates. However, they're roomy enough.This product is worth the money in my opinion and will see more uses than just a one–time costume.

I give this four stars, for the price, which was not too bad. I'd have awarded 3.5 were it available. Overall rating for quality/fit, I'd have to choose a 3, primarily for the fit.The material seems decent, compared to many other costume-grade outfits. It's not particularly robust, but doesn't feet as though the slightest movement will rip it. It's nice that it came with the rope and cross.Where I have an issue with this is that, despite being XL in size, I found it quite binding in the upper chest and across the back. It was tight around the upper arms; I didn't buy this to show off my triceps, I would have preferred flowing and draping. Because of this, getting it on and off was a tad tricky. Nonetheless, it was extremely long. It was more in keeping with a person well over 6' tall.All in all, not a bad purchase, but if you have a muscular chest and arms, be sure to go up a size. But be prepared to hem it, unless you're rather tall.

This item was perfect for what I was looking for. I'm 6'1" and the L size fits so that my hands don't end up completely hidden in the sleeves and I am also not dragging the fabric on the floor.The material is nice but not too heavy, I can imagine it getting a bit hot inside but nothing crazy. The rope is thick and knots well. The additional cross is a nice add-on but wasn't really anything special. I personally didn't need it but if you're looking for something like that I perhaps would recommend a longer chain or other accessory.The price is the only thing I find a bit too steep, the same exact product can be found much cheaper on eBay from sellers in China, but then again you don't get the Amazon Prime Shipping. So I understand it would have to be a bit more to be stocked and shipped out of the US.

In all fairness, the incident with the superglue cannot be blamed on the makers of this robe.That might be the most positive thing I have to say. If you’re exactly the size you want to order, this is an okay robe for a monk’s costume. It comes in two pieces, the robe and the cowl. However, for $45, the quality should be much better.I ordered a XL for my brother, but the shoulders weren’t wide enough for him; I sent that back and got the XXL, thinking I could just hem it. However, when hemming something, it helps tremendously if all seams are equal on both sides of the midline. For example, if one shoulder seam from collar to sleeve is 5 inches, the other one should be 5 inches as well...NOT 6 inches. The material is also cheap polyester, which is the worst for both sewing and being in the sun. My brother felt like he was being roasted “like a pig on a spit” in the robe. Fortunately, I was able to sort of fix the sleeves (covering the different cuff seams with a leather lacing, which was where the superglue came in) and my brother still had a great time as a warrior monk at the Ren Faire.However, my advice is don’t buy this robe. For just a bit more money, you can get a much higher quality cotton robe. Higher quality, better comfort, no need to bother with shoulder seams of unequal length!

The robe is made well enough but it seems to be the same width throughout. Lengthwise, it was perfect but I had problems getting it over my shoulders and chest. I am 6'2" and 250 pounds. Once on, it was uncomfortable and movement was restricted. If your chest is bigger than your belly, or vice versa, you might find this is not a good fit. One more thing - the rope belt appears to be the same length regardless of size. So the XXL I purchased looks nothing like the picture since it has only a few inches left hanging. I'm returning it.
