Overcoat
An overcoat is a type of long coat intended to be worn as the outermost garment, which usually extends below the knee. Overcoats are most commonly used in winter when warmth is more important. They are sometimes confused with or referred to as topcoats, which are shorter and end at or above the knees. Topcoats and overcoats together are known as outercoats. Unlike overcoats, topcoats are usually made from lighter weight cloth such as gabardine or covert, while overcoats are made from heavier cloth or fur. History In many countries, coats and gowns reaching below the knee have been worn for centuries, often for formal uses, establishing either social status or as part of a professional or military uniform. In the 17th century, the overcoat became widely stylized and available to the different classes. In the Western world The Western world, also known as the West, primarily refers to the various nations and states in the regions of Europe, North America, and Oceani ...

Kepenek
A kepenek is a thick, tent-like Turkish traditional shepherd's outer garment. It is a sleeveless, buttonless garment made of felt worn on the shoulders and covering the whole body from shoulders down. It is made of three parts: one for the back and two (the same as the back, cut in half along the length) for the front. The parts are stitched together along the shoulder lines and all the way down. Usually white, a kepenek may have some adornments. A kepenek can be as much as one centimeter thick, and is sold according to weight; a kepenek weighs several kilograms. While worn as garment, they may also function as a makeshift tent, allowing mobile sheperds to sleep in the open, in cold environments.

Burka (Caucasus)
A burka ( ab, ауапа ', ady, кӏакӏо ', hy, այծենակաճ ', av, буртина ', az, yapıncı, ce, верта ', ka, ნაბადი ', inh, ферта ', kbd, щӏакӏуэ ', os, нымӕг ' russian: бурка ', sva, ღართ ') is a coat made from felt or ''karakul'' (the short curly fur of young lambs of the breed of that name). ''Karakul'' being quite expensive, ''burkas'' were usually sewn from felt treated to look like ''karakul''. ''Burkas'' are sewn with high, squared off shoulders, and wearers will have a distinctive high-shouldered silhouette. Chechnya was the main producer of burkas throughout the North Caucasus. ''Burkas'' were part of the customary male garb of various peoples inhabiting the Caucasus region. ''Burkas'' were adopted by Russian cavalry, and worn as part of the Russian military uniform from the middle of the 18th century until the 1850s, during the Caucasus War.

Kozhukh
A kozhukh ( uk, кожух) is a traditional Ukrainian fur coat. Generally worn in the winter, the kozhukh was normally made of sheepskin, sometimes decorated with embroidery and with leather, cords, tassels, and other accessories. They were tight at the waist, sometimes very long. There were two main variations, those with straight backs and those with detached backs. Variations of the kozhukh were worn throughout Ukraine, but it was primarily used in the middle Dnieper River region, including the Left Bank and steppe areas, and in Polissya. They were especially popular during the Cossack Hetmanate period, though they were also worn during the Kievan Rus' period. In the last decade, coats based on the traditional Kozhukh have become fashionable again in Ukraine.Viktoria Herasymchuk. The Ethnic Look - What Ukrainians Wore and Are Wearing Today'.

Hood (headgear)
A hood is a kind of headgear that covers most of the head and neck, and sometimes the face. Hoods that cover mainly the sides and top of the head, and leave the face mostly or partly open may be worn for protection from the environment (typically cold weather or rain), for fashion, as a form of traditional dress or uniform, or in the case of knights, an armoured hood is used for protection against bladed weapons. In some cases, hoods are used to prevent the wearer from seeing where they are going (e.g., in cases where a prisoner is hooded). Hoods with eye holes may be used for religious purposes to prevent the wearer from being seen. In the case of Ku Klux Klan members, terrorists, or criminals such as robbers, a hood with eye holes helps prevent identification. Etymology The word traces back to Old English ''hod'' "hood," from Proto-Germanic *''hodaz'' (cf. Old Saxon, Old Frisian ''hod'' "hood," Middle Dutch ''hoet'', Dutch ''hoed'' "hat," Old High German ''huot'' "helmet, ha ...
