What type of robe did Jesus wear?

John 19:23, 24 - Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took His garments and made four parts, to each soldier a part, and also the tunic. Now the tunic was without seam, woven from the top in one piece. They said therefore among themselves, "Let us not tear it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be," that the Scripture might be fulfilled which says: "They divided My garments among them, And for My clothing they cast lots." Therefore the soldiers did these things. [NKJV]This is all that's specifically said of it, but Jesus' "seamless" robe was quite unusual, indicating that it was woven for Him by someone who took great pains to make it "special;" so much so that it played a role in the fulfillment of prophecy.

Why was Jesus' robe so important?

At the time Jesus was alive His robe was nothing special to anyone. It was an ordinary robe. When Jesus was crucified the soldiers were interested in Jesus robe and other clothing as these could be sold or bartered by the "poor" soldiers to get something they needed or wanted. Clothing from other prisoners was of equal value to them. After the burial any follower of Jesus would have wanted Jesus' robe just because it belong to their master and Lord.

Why did the Romans bid on Jesus' cloak and did it have a value?

The Romans did not bid on Jesus' robe. According to the Gospel of John the soldiers who crucified Jesus divided his clothes into four parts (presumably four soldiers shared the items). They decided who would have his chiton (tunic or coat) by casting lots for it because it was woven in one piece and was seamless and they did not want to tear it. The significance of this for John was that with this event "the saying in Scripture was fulfilled." John was referring to Psalm 21:18-19 in the Old Testament which said: "they divided My raiment among them, and upon My vesture did they cast lots" This garment had been variously called the Seamless Robe of Jesus, the Holy Robe, the Holy Tunic, the Honorable Robe, and the Chiton of the Lord. According to legend, Helena, the mother of Constantine the Great, discovered the seamless robe in the Holy Land in 327 or 328 along with several other relics, including the True Cross. There was various traditions which claim that the robe is now preserved in different places: Cathedral of Trier, a church in Argenteuil (both places are in France) in a cathedral in Mtskheta, in Georgia, and some pieces of it ended up in the cathedral at the Winter Palace, and in the Sts. Peter and Paul Cathedral in Saint Petersburg, the Cathedral of the Dormition in Moscow, the Sophia Cathedral in Kiev and the Ipatiev monastery in Russia.
