{"product_id":"grey-black-scapular-monk-habit","title":"Grey Hooded Monk Robe with Black Scapular, Benedictine Style Habit","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis habit sets a black scapular and hood squarely against a grey tunic, a graphic two-tone pairing rather than the softer tonal contrast seen elsewhere in our range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe cut\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe scapular runs front and back over a grey tunic, in solid black that reads as a near-solid vertical panel from both angles, and the hood matches it exactly, pointed, with a deep centre-back seam. Sleeves are grey, wide and bell-shaped, left uncontrasted so the eye goes to the black panel rather than the sleeve. The scapular's hem sits slightly higher than the tunic's, giving a stepped line at the base rather than one continuous hem. The habit is tunic, scapular and hood only, pulling on over the head with no front fastening.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCloth and finish\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe cloth is cotton, smooth and matte, with no sheen. Weight is medium - enough to hold the scapular's shape without the tunic beneath collapsing. The grey and black are both flat, solid colours; there is no print, weave pattern or embroidery anywhere on the garment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis habit is made in either cotton or wool, and the choice is yours on this page. Cotton is lighter and breathes in warm weather; wool is heavier and holds more body in the fall of the skirt. The photographs show the cotton. The price changes as soon as you choose the cloth, and again with the size code.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWho wears it\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eTunic, scapular and hood together are a Benedictine-style construction, so we call the cut \u003cem\u003eBenedictine in character\u003c\/em\u003e, though the strong black-on-grey contrast is a bolder, more graphic treatment than the plain monochrome habits typically worn in that tradition - this colouring is our own choice, not any order's. It suits monks, oblates and lay people who want the Benedictine three-part shape without the tonal restraint of an all-black or all-grey habit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSize and fit\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe grade to fourteen sizes, each a chest range with a matching robe length: S 34-37 in, M 38-41 in, L 42-45 in, XL 46-49 in, 2XL 50-53 in, in lengths of 54, 56, 58, 60 or 62 in taken from the nape of the neck to the hem. Made to Measure, the fifteenth option, is priced the same as the L sizes and built to your own figures.
