this habit is absolutely awesome. since i feel called to the diocesan(parish) priesthood in the Catholic Church I dont get a habit or any monastic stuff which i enjoy because I am a medieval history and church history fanatic. So i decided, i cant be monk but i cn have a habit of my own. the robe portion will work excellent as a cassock-like substitute around the parish on slow days and in the winter with the hood piece added. plus im just a history nut so i like to have outfits from different periods, but medieval is my favorite. the sash is poor though and just plain innaccuate. the benedictines would use a leather belt or a heavey black cord, like the Franciscans with their white cords. but awesome product overall. God bless!

Before I received my Robe I truly did not know what to expect, however upon receiving it I was down right impressed at the craftsmanship that went in to making it. The Robe are by far the best quality Robes on the market. (And believe me I’ve been looking for good one for a long time.) To sum it up, if you are looking for authentic and beautiful Robe of great quality. Look no further just go and add to cart and check out. Great Job M.R.’s.

We have used these Robes since 2002 in our religious order The Order of Saint Thomas, and they stand up to all the abuse our Friars and misiionaries put them through. They pass our feild test even Chicago to DR Congo. We dont want to use anything else. Br.Dave,OST http://Social.LCOCCI.ORG

I bought two of these robes in black for ritual use, and I am absolutely pleased with them. They are hand woven, a detail that I think should be included in the description. They are warm, sturdy and perfect for those of us who hold rituals out of doors. A nice coat of Scotch-guard and you have a wonderful robe for any conditions. I highly recommend these beautiful hand woven robes. Blessed be.

I just received the Monk's Robe in the mail today. I ordered brown, because of my interest in Saint Francis. This is a very comfortable piece to wear, even though the fabric is heavy, and rough. I indeed will replace the belt for a Franciscan style one later on. A very nice, well made habit. Try tying the belt in three knots on each side, like the Franciscan order Friars do, until you can get a better sash. The belt is the only thing that is not Franciscan. Not a big problem, for the rest of the look or apprearance is great! If you want a nice habit, or something nice & warm but different, then this is the right item for you. Thanks you very much M.R.

The Robe Is Great! It's Very Warm, Durable, And Very Comfortable To Meditate And Study In. You Can Literally Just See It's Durability In The Way It's Woven. I Love It! It Was The Perfect Choice For A Meditation/ Study Robe! It's Got A Wonderful Deep Hood Good For Blocking Out Distracting Light And Keeping Satisfyingly Warm Around A Cold Home Or Even Outside In The Cutting Wind Of An October Night (Like I Did For Halloween). It's Definitely More Attractive Than It's Appearance Displayed In The Picture. There's A Very Satisfying Feel To The Texture, The Warmth, And The Appearance That Just Makes It Functionally Beautiful To Wear And Pleasent To Look At. I Definitely Recommend This Robe To Anyone Who Needs Something Much Better Than A Snuggie To Wear While Making And Drinking Tea, Studying, And Or Meditating In On Cool Days!

I just received this robe in the mail and I was quite shocked with it. I know it said it was generously cut for the most devote, but I wasn't sure how long the robe would be and I was worried because I am 6'2" and didn't want the robe to end at my knees. Well the robe lays right at my feet for those who are concerned with the length of this garment. Great item for such a reasonable price.

I purchased one a year ago. I found it to be an excellent product and a lot of fun. They do need to offer a separate sash cord or belt of higher quality.
