Mens Mulberry Silk Dressing Gown | Male Silk Bathrobe Nightgown | Kimono Silk Robe

Yes, 100% mulberry silk, grade 6A. Our satin bathrobe is a different product at a much lower price and it is a weave rather than a fibre.

Momme is how silk is weighed. At 19 momme the fabric has enough body to hang and drape properly, which is what separates a silk robe from a flimsy one.

It is a supplier grading for the length and consistency of the raw silk filament, with 6A at the top of the usual scale. It is a supplier's grade rather than an independent standard, so treat it as a description of the yarn rather than a certificate.

Not really, and we would rather be straight about it. Silk is judged on momme weight, not thread count, which is a cotton measure. The number to look at here is 19 momme.

It is sold as one size. It is a wrap robe with a belt, so the fit is forgiving, but if you are much taller or broader than average it is worth emailing us before you order.

It is a long robe rather than a short one. On most men it falls below the knee.

Two, at the front.

It is a separate matching belt that threads through sewn in loops, so it stays with the robe rather than disappearing into a sleeve.

It is sold in a single colourway on this listing. If you want a choice of colours, the satin robe comes in black and wine at a lower price.

It takes the chill off rather than acting as insulation. Silk sits close to your own temperature, which is why the same robe works in summer and winter.

Not in the way that phrase suggests, and we have taken it off this page. What silk actually does is move moisture and sit near your own temperature rather than trapping heat like a synthetic. That is a real difference, and it is not thermostatic.

It is a lounging robe rather than a drying one. Silk absorbs very little water compared with towelling.

Yes, and it is cut with the room to do so.

Cold on a gentle cycle with a silk detergent, or dry clean it if you prefer. Never bleach it, and never wash it hot.

No. Hang it on a wide hanger away from direct heat and sunlight.

Occasionally, and always on the reverse at a cool setting. A hot iron will glaze silk and the mark stays.

It can. Rings, watch straps and rough nails are the usual culprits. The French seams help the inside survive, but the face is smooth and a pulled thread is possible.

Years with cold washing and shade drying. Heat, bleach and direct sun are what age silk, in that order.

Slowly, and mostly from sunlight. Dry it in the shade.

It is smooth and quiet. It will slide off the arm of a chair, which is a small price for how it feels.

We do not make that claim. Silk is a natural protein fibre and some people with sensitive skin prefer it, which is a preference rather than a tested claim. Anyone with a diagnosed silk allergy should avoid it.

No, and we have taken that claim off this page. Silk is smoother than cotton so it catches skin and hair less, which is a real and modest difference. It does not slow ageing.

It is the most gifted item in the men's range, and one size removes most of the risk in buying for someone else.

Yes. Embroidery and monogramming is a separate item on this site and goes on the same order.

Because it is real silk at a substantial weight. The satin robe is EUR 69 and is a synthetic weave. This is the fibre, not the imitation of it.

Free. This product is well over the EUR 75 threshold on its own.

Allow 5 to 7 days across Europe once your order is on its way.

Yes, 14 days from delivery to change your mind under EU consumer law, unworn and in resaleable condition.

Yes, there is a men's mulberry silk pyjama set and silk boxer shorts, both real silk, in the same part of the shop.

Yes, there is a wholesale page, and it is worth contacting us directly about quantities.
