burnooses
North African robes
Burnooses is the plural of burnoose, a long hooded cloak traditionally worn in North Africa and the Middle East.
The garment is typically made of wool and provides protection from sun, wind, and sand: Bedouin travelers wrapped themselves in their burnooses against the desert chill.
