    Loose-fitting robe for daily wear. Knee or ankle length, long or short sleeve, pockets or no pockets.

    I wanted the freedom of nudity during the heat of summer, but society says no. I dont like the femme nature of dresses. I thought ill get a long shirt thats knee length and nobody can complain. They don't really make them. Plus i also like pockets. I learned about throbes, but theyre religious garb. I found kaftans to be the solution. My skin breathes, and im not feeling restricted physically or by gender norms.

    Kaftans are really comfy, especially with hot weather. Yours looks extra soft!

    I bought 3 of the same "night shirt" (gown) online and they are knee length. Those are comfy, but too loose at the shoulders. This one i bought for cooler summer weather, its more of a regular cloth, and makes me feel like a monk or wizard.

    Looking lovely and cozy! I think we managed to get a couple of these when we've gone thrifting but never had a name for them, awesome to know now. - Phoebe (it/its)
