Cuddlin' on the Couch With the Elder Gods

I recently read (and adored) Scott Hawkins' "The Library at Mount Char". If I could find a real-life product similar to the apprentices' robes in the book, I'd be SO delighted. Here's every description of the robes that I could find: "rough cotton", "a gray-green cotton thing along the lines of a kimono with a hood, tied at the waist with a sash", "vaguely monk-like", "loose, oversized sleeves".
Any idea where I can snag such a thing? Thanks, Hive!
Etsy. Start with one that looks close - maybe this one or this one - and contact the seller to see if they can customize to match perfectly (especially sourcing the fabric)

Do you have a pagan/occult kinda shop where you are? Ritual robes are often available to buy, and usually the stores have direct relationships with their suppliers for customization.

Renaissance/RenFaire/Medieval stores should carry something similar. Many RenFaire-like shops will do custom stuff, too.
It'll likely be very pricey, though.
