Can I get Doctoral Bars for my Qwick-Ship pulpit robe?
We stock pre assembled Velvet doctoral bars in most of the colors that match the Velvet panels on our Qwick-Ship pulpit robes. You can order these Velvet bars at the time you place your Qwick-Ship robe order, and a local tailor can sew them on for you. Check the Qwick-Ship section of our ChurchWear Price List for pricing.

Can I order a "floor length" robe?
Frankly, floor length robes can be a health hazard! We recommend that your pulpit robe or cassock end no less than 4 inches from the floor - 6-8 inches is best. Most sanctuaries have at least one or two steps in front of the pulpit, and if your robe reaches the floor, you're likely to trip.

How long does it take to get a custom-tailored pulpit robe?
Because each custom tailored pulpit robe is individually tailored to your specifications, you will need to allow 4 to 5 weeks manufacturing time from the date we receive your order, complete with all necessary information. This includes all measurements required, style name and number, fabrics, colors, trims, embroidered symbols and their colors and placements.

What's the best way to care for my new pulpit robe?
After each wearing, hang your robe on our contoured Robe Hanger #122 to maintain the shape of the robe yoke. This inexpensive accessory can really help keep your robe looking good. Wire hangers can cause fold or crease lines to form on the shoulders after a few years. It's also best to zip the robe, or fasten the hook and eye closure, to keep it properly aligned on the hanger. Allow time for any residual body heat or moisture to dissipate before storing in a closet.
The importance of regular cleaning by a reputable professional dry cleaner cannot be overemphasized, particularly on white or very light colored robes. Don't wait until there is heavy soiling around the neckline or inside the cuffs. A good dry cleaner can help keep your robe looking like new for years. Beware of "bargain" cleaners, however. Dirty or discolored cleaning solutions, or improper pressing and handling techniques on velvet panels can destroy the appearance of your robe.

When are sleeve lengths required on a choir robe order?
Normally, we do not require sleeve lengths on a choir robe order, because our sleeve lengths are graded to the average arm length of the average person of a given height, based on tables provided by the U.S. Bureau of Standards, as well as our own experience of many years. However, if your choir has a member or members with unusually long or short arms, please provide shirt sleeve lengths for these individuals.
