Various clothing, all woolen. Colors of the original wool were grey (now dark brown), dark and light brown and white (now yellowish). The thread used is single twined. A simple weft is used, with about 4-5 threads/cm. The coat and cloak both are about knee-length. Coat rectangular about 140x90cm, cloak kidney shaped, about 240x110cm if I recal correctly. Belt either leather, fastened with a double headed button or belt-woven woolen belt.
