so i was just browsing the guide on the clothing available ( i prefer to use heavy boots and gloves and some type of robe) and i love the look of the blue mage robes but i wanted to find an un-enchanted version for me to put my own enchants into when i found out that there are alot of robes ive never seen nor heard of before ( hooded red/grey/green/brown/monk/necro robes(all of these are un-enchanted)).

So i was wondering ...where in all of skyrim are these located most importantly the red hooded robes because if they are actual red ( aka not adept robes orange) then i will be a happy person. so if any of you guys have found a particular merchant who stocks these frequently i would appreciate the info

Farengar in Whiterun usually has unenchanted blue robes (at least in my current game.... this is not always the case, and I have no idea why a merchant's stock would change depending on toon/game); I've seen red robes at Bits and Pieces in Solitude once in this game, don't remember if I've seen robes elsewhere otherwise as my toons don't wear them....

thanks serethil lol i went to bits and pieces low and behold hooded red robes seems they are extremely rare in most shops i gotta catch em all !

You're welcome Zark! Believe me, that's probably the ONLY thing I'll remember of this nature though.... age is a problem for us all someday, and my day arrived about the time I hit 60.

There's a shop in Solitude that specializes in clothing and jewelry; Radiant Raiment. You might try there.
