As the official robe supplier to the Unified Patent Court, we make the robes of all its judges – Court of First Instance and Court of Appeal. This is the Court of First Instance model: hand-tailored to measure in our Landshut atelier and personalized for you. Cloth, trimmings and lining are fixed for every UPC robe; your one decision is the extent of the lining. Not an interpretation of the court’s robe – the robe itself.
Cloth

Lining
Fixed for every UPC robe: Lining No. 9 Paisley Royal – royal blue paisley jacquard, 100% viscose, 78 g/m². Its blue answers the velvet trimmings; it belongs to this robe like the piping.

Manufaktur Bavaria – Robe-Shop: Premium robes delivered with exceptional care.
Our house cloth — 100% finest merino wool, woven to our own standard. The exclusive fabric TIMELESS | bespoken Silver Wool is yarn-dyed at 150 g/m² (225 g/m) and woven expressly to our specifications for robes and gowns. Its exceptionally fine, light weave yields a soft, flowing handle; an exclusive finish lends the cloth its discreet, dry lustre — elegance that does not need to shine in order to be felt. In the courtroom as in the pulpit, merino wool shows why it has been the measure of all things for centuries: it regulates body temperature over many hours, absorbs moisture and releases it again without ever feeling damp — and falls as smoothly at the end of a long day as it did in the morning, for it barely creases. The story of this fibre begins in twelfth-century Spain: over generations, the Spanish courts bred the merino sheep for ever whiter, ever finer wool — a commodity so precious that it was reserved for the nobility and weighed against gold. You carry this tradition with every robe in TIMELESS | bespoken Silver Wool. Lining: fixed for every UPC robe – Lining No. 9 Paisley Royal, 100% viscose, 78 g/m².

Made to Measure – Individually Tailored for You
Every robe is crafted to your precise measurements to ensure an elegant and comfortable fit.
Please watch the video below for guidance on how to take your measurements. Once completed, submit your details in the measurement form.
You may also consult our Fabric & Lining Card to personalize the interior of your robe.
Every figure is reviewed before the cloth is cut. Our atelier in Landshut goes through each measurement, and a doubtful number is queried rather than quietly cut — we measure twice, the cloth is cut once.
Your robe will be individually crafted in Bavaria from the world's finest cloth – tailored not only to your measurements, but to your presence.

Our exclusive robes are masterfully handcrafted from the finest, meticulously selected materials, including yarn-dyed Merino wool, luxurious cashmere, and pure silk.
