Simply do what Rik Mayall did to play chess, turn your normal coat inside out.

Me and Mrs Crodo invested in new house coats yesterday as a May treat to ourselves. The shop assistant said they’ve declined massively in popularity over the past decade and are now considered unfashionable. Anyone else still wear house coats?

Housecoats! They did go out of fashion didn't they? And not in the last decade either. I do remember my Nan had one, but that was back in the 1960s.

I hope you and Mrs Crodo enjoy wearing yours. Have they got flower patterns on them?

What's a house coat?

Housewives used to wear them over their clothes when doing the chores to keep their clothes clean. (A bit like wearing an apron when cooking). Not to be confused with a dressing gown or bath robe.

I did a search to see if I could buy a housecoat online, but I all got was bath robes, and dressing gowns. If you can't find it online it's definitely out of fashion.

I've got one.

Knocky's Nose · May 17, 2019

Both my own Nan and my wife's Nan used to wear them all the time. My Nan was a cleaner so wore one all day!

I think they're a relic of past times, but well done for flying the house coat flag!

They usually made out of nylon. Polyester just doesn't cut it now.

No despite its name, that is a dressing gown.

A housecoat was a lighter type of overall.

Then I rest my case. Definitely not in fashion.

I think you'll find that housecoats are still prevalent in some 'Leave' voter communities, centred around Rochdale.

I know you’re not talking about dressing gowns... I just know it...

When you say dressing gown do you mean a house coat??

This is THE MOST CRODO THREAD. Ever.

I like it ... I shall henceforth refer to my Slippers as House Shoes.

Thunder Bolt · May 17, 2019

This is the nearest I can find but think flowery instead of checks.

Unless there's a 9th series, it's seems unlikely that Lord Crodo of House Coats will be challenging for the Iron Throne anytime soon.

The great think about coats is that you can leave your house and take your coat with you.

The Merry Prankster · May 17, 2019

I'd forgotten housecoats. My gran always wore one.
