Robin of Loxley is an English folklore hero who was both a highly skilled archer and swordsman.

Robin and his Men wore Lincoln green clothes and they became infamous for "robbing from the rich to give to the poor".

Robin Hood fancy dress costumes have always been popular, but become even more so in recent years thanks to the Hollywood blockbuster, Prince of Thieves, starring Kevin Costner in the title role and then more recently due to the huge success of the BBC television series.

Friar Tuck Costume: Be a Monk, with a Twist

The joy-filled, easy-going monk from Robin Hood tales will come to life when you don the unique monk outfit. But first, a little about this endearing character and his camaraderie with Robin Hood:

• Who is Friar Tuck?

Friar Tuck is part of the legendary gang of

Robin Hood – the ‘Merry Men’

This fun-loving monk was first seen in Robin Hood plays from 1975 onwards. Robin Hood and the Knight or Robin Hood and the Sheriff is where people first came to know and love this witty monk. Some say he was a monk of ‘Fountains Abbey’, some claim him to be a priest at St Mary's Abbey in York – whose order had to expel him due to his utter lack for respect for the authority.

Don’t you like his gutsy, rebelling attitude?

When it came to good wine and food, you bet he had an awesome taste! But he loyally and devoutly chose to become a gang member of Robin Hood. In stories from the "Robin Hood and the Curtal Friar" to Howard Pyle's The Merry Adventures of Robin Hood, Friar Tuck engages in a battle of wits in his first encounter with Robin Hood and ends up tossing him in a river! Be this witty, loyal and popular monk for a night!  Why dress up as this adorable monk character? Are you tired of dressing up as the done-to-death characters like Superman, Bill Clinton, Batman and all sorts of mythical, macho heroes that every Tom, Dick or Harry is seen in?Then do something different this Halloween. Better yet – don an outfit that’s unusual – a deluxe Friar Tuck monk costume will do the trick! When all your friends are claiming to be the regular, clichéd ‘Ironman’ and the likes, you get to be a fun-loving monk with a full-length robe, a white/grey belt and even a cross and a bald-patch wig to boot! If your costume does not include a cross – get one!

This medieval monk costume is just the outfit to make you the talk of any costume fest.
