This fashion triumph will not stand man…

Of all the great comedy films to emerge in the ’90s, Jeff Bridges’ The Big Lebowski might just be one of the best. His portrayal of Jeff “The Dude” Lebowski, a laid-back Los Angeles slacker tasked with rescuing a millionaire’s wife, stands out as one of his best works to date, and is undoubtedly one of the go-to movies to watch for stoners far and wide.

The film undoubtedly holds a special place in the collective consciousness of cinema, particularly due to the robe that Bridges dons throughout its runtime. The iconic, grime-covered bathrobe has, despite its utterly gross appearance, has somehow become one of the most revered pieces of clothing in cinema. Now, you have the chance to own it for yourself as it heads to auction in celebration of the film’s 25th anniversary.

In addition to the robe, Bridges’ iconic T-shirt and sunglasses from the film are also available for purchase. However, if you’re looking to avoid looking like a total slob, other items from the film, such as signed bowling balls and storyboards, are up for grabs.

Discussing the auction, Bridges expressed his adoration for the film, even after all these years, referring to it as one of his all-time favourites (and not just because he’s in it). And to be honest, it’s easy to see why. Check out the robe in action during the iconic opening scene of the film below, along with Bridges’ announcement of the auction above.
