{"product_id":"grey-cowl-collar-monk-habit","title":"Heather Grey Hooded Monk Robe with Cowl Collar, Monastic Habit","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe plainest habit we cut: a solid heather grey wool robe with a wide, rounded cowl collar over the hood and nothing else added, no scapular, no second colour, just a tan rope cincture at the waist. It is available in your size code or tailored to your own measurements.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe cut\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA pointed hood sits under a wide cowl collar that drapes over both shoulders; below it the body is unbroken grey to the floor, with no scapular or panel of any kind. Wide bell sleeves match the body. The rope cincture is tan, tied at the waist with knotted, tasselled ends, and there are no pockets. Nothing on this habit is stitched in a second colour, which sets it apart from most of the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCloth and finish\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a coarse, flecked, melange wool with real texture under the hand, closer to a tweed than a smooth worsted, and enough weight to let the cowl collar stand away from the shoulder rather than sitting flat. Because there is only the one colour, the texture of the cloth does more of the visual work than on our two-tone habits, and it is worth feeling a swatch before you order if texture matters to you.\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 wool. 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\u003eThis is the simplest, most monastic-reading cut in our range: a solid-colour hooded robe with a rope cincture and cowl collar, without colour-blocking to draw on any one order's dress. We are not linking the grey colouring to any particular community's habit; it is our own choice of cloth. It suits monks, friars, oblates, novices and lay people keeping a rule of life, and anyone who wants an unadorned habit for prayer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSize and fit\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe offer fourteen graded sizes and a Made to Measure option; the price steps up with the chest size, and Made to Measure is priced the same as the L sizes. S is 34-37in chest, M 38-41in, L 42-45in, XL 46-49in, 2XL 50-53in, and each code carries a robe length of 54, 56, 58, 60 or 62in from the nape of the neck to the hem, so a code such as M-56 tells you both figures at once. Give us your own figures under Made to Measure if you would prefer that route. The garment goes on over the head with nothing to do up at the front.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSee more in \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/religious-habits\"\u003ereligious habits\u003c\/a\u003e,
