A Sickening Sight
Imagine you’re a happy peasant in Medieval England, happily working long hours at your local bog to collect peat, pitch, and resin for your beloved autocrat, Richard the Lionheart. Normally, working amid swarms of midges, mites, and mosquitos is no bother at all, but today, for whatever reason, you just don’t feel all that great. Well, lucky for you, there just so happens to be a doctor in town! You imagine he’ll give you a nice lozenge and a doctor’s note for your boss, but then you see him- a towering, dark figure with the face of a crow!
Anyone’s first thought in this situation would probably be, “oh no, the Grim Reaper!” But no! It is just your friendly neighborhood physician under that horrifying mask and cloak. After giving you that lozenge and assuring you that your “humors” are well-balanced, he’ll send you on your way, right back to work. There’ll be no day off for you, peasant!
On the Beak
You’ll strike an intimidating figure in this surprisingly comfortable, black hooded robe and mask. You will feel like you’re wrapped in a warm, cozy blanket, and the mask obscuring your face means that no one will know if you take advantage of the situation to enjoy a quick nap.
Not for Real Doctors
In the interest of safety, we wish to warn all surgeons, doctors, and healers of any kind that this plague doctor costume is not rated for use in any kind of medical setting. Something about the loose robes and crazy mask being neither sterile nor easy to clean, blah blah blah. You’ve been warned!

Height 5' 1" | Weight 125 | Size StandardFull disclosure, I modded the heck out of this costume, but that's part of how I can tell the quality is awesome. Stitching is well done and durable, material is very comfortable. I didn't wear the mask, but after a couple days I noticed the plastic smell went away.
Downsides:
Hood. The Velcro "clasp" is a bit flimsy, and the material is thin and stiff. On a taller/broader person it might be more fitted and not be as much of an issue, but it looked a bit Little Red Riding hood on me.
Hot!! It's really warm in there especially with jeans and a t shirt, but I guess clothing is optional with a costume like this. Up to you.
In general, this costume is great. Keep in mind that it will NOT fit the average woman without some heavy modification. But it is absolutely as advertised and I would recommend it.Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.Was this review helpful to you? - Very long for "one size"By Kara | October 3, 2022
Height 5'5" | Weight 135 | Size StandardThis costume is awesome and very well made. It says "Adult size" but it is quite long. My son is 5'5" and he trips over it.Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.Was this review helpful to you?
