Ironman verdict
Where the materials come from: Cape (black) (sold by Barker's Haberdashery for 20 coins); Purple dye (sold by Lletya Seamstress for 6 coins). Making ten takes 10 × Cape (black) and 10 × Purple dye and gives 25 Crafting XP. It is worn in the back slot; compare it with every other piece on the Back list. Cape (purple) is available on free-to-play worlds too. It is tradeable on normal accounts, but an Ironman cannot use the Grand Exchange or trade for it, so the sources on this page are the whole list. High Alchemy turns one into 12 coins.
