- Photo 29 July 2014, robe in shop.
Loaves were normally in stock in July, but from August they were noticeably sold out.
When I went on the evening of Saturday 9 August, it was sold out.
When I went there after 11am on Saturday 23 August, it was sold out and I couldn't buy it.
If this is the case, I should have bought it in July, regret regret regret regret regret (/_;).
After consulting with my colleagues, I decided to go and buy a robe first thing in the morning on Sunday 24 August (laughs).
No way, no how, I went to USJ two days in a row.

And when you look at the Gryffindor uniform section, there it is! There are! There's lots of dressing gowns!
A peek inside the Wiseacre Magical Supplies shop in the Harry Potter area reveals an enchanted robe!
Available in sizes XS, S, M and L.
For my body shape, I could have worn a medium, but considering the silhouette when worn, a large was the best size. When I told the shop assistant, she gave me an unopened robe in a bag instead of one hanging on a hanger. Really, the plan was to buy it, wear the dressing gown on the spot and go for a walk around Hogwarts and Hogsmeade. Was I? Because I was the only one in the house, so I took it home unopened. The reason was that the people I was supposed to be with were ill and couldn't come. I didn't have the courage to walk around in a robe by myself.
(Note: In 2014, I 'Pancake Man' was much slimmer than in 2023. Sweat)
In the beginning she was this shy. That changed in less than two months. w
So we will hold the opening ceremony at home (^^)/.

Product name: HP ROBE GRYFFINDOR (Gryffindor dormitory dressing gown)
Some shops do not sell dressing gowns, depending on the time of year and availability.See the Robe Comparison Report for details on robe sizes.
Get your official Univa Gryffindor dressing gowns... Wiseacre Magical Supplies Store|USJ "Harry Potter Area".
August 2014 When you buy an official Univa Harry Potter Gryffindor robe, they put it in a special Wizarding World paper bag.
(Note As of 2023, this paper bag has already been discontinued and is no longer a valuable item. At that time, the only free shopper was a paper bag. These shoppers were difficult to walk around with as there were no holes for handles. (Laughter)
The dressing gown is new and unopened in a plastic bag.
Open the bag... and take out the robe.

*Cosplay products (unofficial) and other printed items are available.
Only one button on the front of the robe|USJ Official Robe
It cannot be fastened from top to bottom like a normal long coat. Naturally, when you walk, it flutters on the www.
The sleeve section is narrow at the shoulder and wide at the cuff|USJ Official Robe
What a hood! It was a great tongari hat (laughs)|USJ Official Robe
No, this is a tonger shape than expected and www.
Inside: unlined back in red! | USJ official robe
The front, sleeves, shoulders and hood are lined in red. The entire back, down to the bottom, is unlined, which may be surprisingly hot!
With pocket to accommodate a wizard's wand! | USJ official robe
Near the left chest, the only inside pocket is a wand compartment pocket. I put my Harry Potter wand in it. w

The dressing gown has the same product specifications for the other dormitories Slytherin, Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw. They only differ in the symbolic colours of the dormitory and the design of the emblem.
(Note The company name "U.S.J. Inc." and prices as of 2014.)
What it feels like to wear a robe|USJ Official Robe
A Wizard Pancake Man who is just over 170 cm and wears a size L robe is approximately 15 cm from the bottom of his feet to the bottom of the robe.
The shoulder width is about standard for men (L or XL for ready-to-wear shirts) and the fit is snug.
Based on my height in reverse, the L size robe is supposed to be for people over 165 cm.
If you're younger than that, there's a chance of dragging the hem of your dressing gown...
The weight is quite light due to the polyester & unlined back.
When I wear it, the pattern is well thought out, and even I, with my broad shoulders, have a well-defined silhouette.
It is maintained and comfortable to wear.
(What I mean is that the shoulders and hood do not give a sloppy, misshapen silhouette.)
Oh, I can't wait to wear it at USJ and walk around!
I want to feel like a Gryffindor student!
But for a while, we won't have a chance to...
Coordinated to be the uniform of Gryffindor...|USJ Official Robe
For the time being, I decorated the room like this (laughs).
tieThe tie was inspired by the design of the first and second films, and the shirt was also substituted with a suitable shirt that I own.
Now I want to buy you a tie! No, you want a jumper too! Gryffindor and Slytherin dressing gowns are often sold out, so if you want a robe, go first thing in the morning! They are not due back in stock any time soon. (According to the witches at Wiseacre Magical Supplies.) So it's up to luck whether they'll be in stock the morning after they sell out.
In 2014 there were only a few dressing gowns in stock and they were sold out; from 2015 onwards they will not be sold out.
