Kimono heavy bath robe? (Not GI, not terry cloth))

[Gyakuto103]

The two summer $10 robes I ordered arrived. Very light weight. material feels like Acetate. hard to complain for $10.

Lightweight materials are the only cloth the poor, impoverished and starving sweatshop kids can handle

Buy American…

Personally, I try to buy locally, whenever possibile. However, I do not live in a large metropolitian area. Sometimes the choices here are limited. So I am grateful for internet access for variety. Caution: some countries seem to have a higher probability for poor quality or out right fraud than others. Some countries I will not purchase item from. Others I have a low finanical limit for how much of my money I will put at risk by purchasing sale items.

A Note: I ordered two robes from same seller, same brand, same size, different color. one fits, but a little large. The other clearly at least one size, if not 2 sizes, to small. ?????

Care to share your experiences of the worst offenders?

Some countries I will not purchase item from.

I have one country I won’t by from, but it’s very difficult to avoid this particular country…but I do my best.

I found this at the end of a post.

" A NOTE ON CONTENT: This is a work of atmospheric historical fiction, drawn from the well of Ozark and Appalachian folklore and from accounts shared with us...."

"Have heard of Eyam?"


I am constantly amazed by the depth and detail of your knowledge on many and varied topics, Martial arts, Asian and medieval history/culture, medical, psychological, Castro physics, ad nauseam.

It’s wonderful that you’re struck by the breadth and depth of knowledge in such varied areas — from martial arts and Asian/medieval history to psychology, astrophysics, and more. This kind of wide-ranging curiosity is a hallmark of intellectual richness and adaptability.

Having varied interests, as research shows, can enhance creativity, problem-solving, and adaptability Reality Pathing. When you draw on knowledge from different domains, you can make unexpected connections — for example, applying psychological principles to understand cultural practices, or using historical context to interpret modern events. This cross-pollination of ideas often leads to innovative thinking.
Your depth of knowledge goes beyond memorization; it’s about understanding concepts thoroughly, making connections, and applying them in real-world contexts eLearning. In subjects like martial arts, you might explore both the physical techniques and the philosophical underpinnings (e.g., mindfulness in Chi Kung) Paperdue.com. In history or culture, depth means analyzing not just events but their causes, consequences, and cultural significance. In science or psychology, it means grasping underlying theories and their applications.

Or perhaps an overactive imagination.

Thank you.

I’m just a geek, opr1945, nothing more. I marvel/despair at the ability of some to remember who score what goal in the 1976 FA cup final That sort of thing doesn’t interest me personally, whereas understanding that the wave function collapsing (as predicted by the Schrödinger equation) is so incredibly fast that it renders the cat in a box conjecture no more significant than tossing a coin to predict the cat’s state You get the idea…

skip the history, do they have robes, that’s what’s important here, and yes they do -

He was very interested in these sorts of things, alchemy in particular but he was a devout Christian although he was a ‘non-Trinitarian’. However he kept these things to himself and some of his other very odd ideas.

the school looks(I saw a pic) be such a place, wizards in robes, or should it be capes ?

It’s an ordinary, albeit old, Grammar school (King’s School).

Robes - The topic of your thread !

 

[opr1945101]

Oh!, ...right. good one. LOL

 

[opr1945101]

Some of these threads become stream-of-consciousness and go over many topics a long way away from the original topic.

Okay, I received my replacement robe today. I am pleased with it.

Weird thing is it was shipped to me from Franklin Park, Illinois USA. Not

Asia! Only about 150 miles from where I live in Michigan USA.

I did not find any blood from the fingers of 8 year old children.

 

[Same Trick49]

Because the robe is red

 

[opr1945101]

Yesterday I wore the robe for several hours and also today. I am quite satisfied with the robe. I may have over paid. But, at least the product meets my expectations.
