Erderich Offline Junior Member Posts: 22	Would you guys consider what Luke wears in the beginning of Jedi and (SPOLERS) at then end of TFA to be a robe? Or is that a cloak? And has anyone found any good patterns for one? I've mostly seen robes but I'd prefer one without sleeves.

I'm not done yet, but I'll share some pictures of the process. Edit: @Anorris' link actually goes to the tunic tutorial; the robe tutorial can be found here. @Erderich I'd call that a cloak. Luke has historically been more of a cloak guy XD I haven't encountered any cloak patterns myself, though.

Hi Erderich,

I think Luke is wearing a cloak as when he reaches out to Artoo's dome a lot of his tunic sleeve can be seen, if it was a robe much more of the robe's sleeve would be seen.
He also wore a cloak in ROTJ instead of a robe, it made it easier for him to discard it when facing the Rancor in the pit. When he faced Jabba he held it closed then reached out from under it when he Force pulled the blaster.

Kind regards,

For Tyeth

There are places to buy it but i haven't noticed a tutorial for making it yourself yet. The rebel legion forums have a great set of tutorials on how to build alot of the jedi uniform. The tunic, the robe, even the belts and pouches. Theres alot of great info on those forums.

	Light and darkness, you cannot have one without the other. To achieve equilibriem you must be in harmony with both; the path between. The administrator has disabled public write access.

Hi all,

I think we're all correct, from a certain point of view. I took a closer look at the pic Snakeeyz99 posted above and the cloak (dark part) appears to be stitched to the oatmeal coloured tabards! I have circled the areas where it looks stitched, sorry its crooked slightly the mouse pad on my laptop isn't great.

Stitching in the red marked areas:

We may have solved the mystery!
