Mr C is a huge fan of Star Wars. When he saw this dressing gown, he was delighted – he couldn’t wait to unleash the force. Mr K was so jealous of his dad. He wants to be a Jedi too.This dressing gown resembles Obi Wan’s cloak from the legendary films, and any aspiring Jedi Knight will love it. It is well made with fine attention to detail. The material is 100% polyester fleece. It has two pockets, embroidered Jedi logo on the left side, large hood and big bell sleeves. It also comes with a sash belt. It is 146cm long that will fit adults size Medium to X Large. Mr C is 5 foot 4 (163cm) and the length of the rode touches on his toes. It is too big for him but it will keep him very warm and cosy with the fleece material. As it is made from fleece, it is bound to cause static. Besides being carefully of his light sabre, he needs to be careful he doesn’t get zapped by the static as it can be painful!
