{"product_id":"ivory-hooded-monk-habit","title":"Ivory Hooded Monk Robe with Rope Cincture, Plain Monk Habit","description":"\u003cp\u003eA single-layer ivory habit in a light, slubby cotton weave, with a plain pointed hood and a white rope cincture tied at the waist, the lightest and simplest habit in our range. It is available in your size code or tailored to your own measurements.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe cut\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a one-piece construction: a plain tunic with an attached pointed hood and no scapular or second panel of any kind. Wide, dropped bell sleeves match the ivory body. The rope cincture is white, tied at the waist with knotted ends that hang to roughly knee height. It pulls on over the head, like every habit we make, without any front closure to fasten.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCloth and finish\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe cloth here is noticeably lighter than the wools elsewhere in our range: a slubby, textured cotton weave with a slightly crinkled surface, closer to a summer-weight habit than a winter one. It takes colour cleanly in this pale ivory and drapes softly rather than holding a stiff shape, so it moves more freely than the heavier wool habits in our range.\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\u003eA plain, single-colour, undecorated hooded robe with a rope cincture is the most basic shape a habit takes, and this one does not copy the cut of any named order; the ivory colouring is our choice, not a claim about a community's dress. It is worn by monks, friars, oblates, novices, chaplains and lay people who keep a rule of life, and by anyone who wants a simple habit for private prayer or for wear in warmer weather.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSize and fit\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery habit, including this one, is available in fourteen graded sizes plus Made to Measure; the price steps up with the chest size, and Made to Measure is priced the same as the L sizes. Chest ranges run S 34-37in to 2XL 50-53in, and each size code pairs that with a robe length of 54, 56, 58, 60 or 62in taken from the nape of the neck to the hem. Send us your own measurements instead if none of the fourteen fit. There is no front fastening to do up.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSee the rest of the \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/religious-habits\"\u003ereligious habits\u003c\/a\u003e range, read the \u003ca
