*The robe is fully lined in 100% cotton fabric.
*Even the back of the neck is lined so the wool does not touch your skin.
*There are two hidden pockets in the side seams.
*In the photographs, the cuffs are turned up to expose the lining but can easily be folded down.
*The sleeve hems and bottom hem are both hand sewn so that if you need to alter the length of either, this can be done very easily if you are handy, or by your alterationist.
*The entire length of the front edges of the robe and around the collar is top stitched by hand, similar to a mens hand made suit, so that the collar edges do not roll and always lay flat.
PLEASE NOTE: For Small/ Medium & Large sizes, please allow an additional 2 weeks before ready for delivery. XXL HAS A BLUE TONE - please refer to swatch picture (it came from a slightly different dye lot - the pattern & lining are exactly the same. Such was the case last century!
