loong Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 I think it would be hard to get the grease stains out of those robes. Always better to have a pattern instead of solid colors. From what i see at funerals, they get so many robes that they only have to wear each one time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
