The Long Lost Robe

Once the garb of royalty and academics, robes have been delegated to bathroom status in these modern times. You may still see a shaving jacket or dressing robe in your grandparent's closet, but today's robes are more like towels than outer wear. How could this have happened when the robe is one of the most comfortable and easy to care for clothing articles around? While you may not feel comfortable wearing that terrycloth on “casual Friday”, don't just leave it in the back of your closet. Be proud of your robe! Enjoy it lounging in the backyard or even cooking on the barbeque.
