somali men attire

[Mahatt]

i have searching the origin of the JOUKE but unfortunately i couldn't the origin but it was worn widely in many regions like Somalis, Sudanese and afars.
also i gave been searching where the word JOUK originated neither i found but i ask myself isn't this word close to the Somali word JOOG since we have been using LABO GO' so widely and they were KOR-GASHI iyo HOOS-GASHI so i though they named this attire JOOG like our women named the dress ISKU JOOG.
i found that SHARMAKE ALI was wearing a cloth like JOUKE and TURBAN or DUUB.

Even the Omani JOKHA isn't same with the JOUKE we had worn

This is Omani JOKHA

so why shouldnt we bring back the JOUKE and make it our traditional men attire
1. JOUKE or JOOG
2. DUUB
3. SHAAL
4. well designed HANGOOL
5. SOMALI SANDALS

-Or also our LABO GO'

Even more we can update and decorate the GARAB-GASHI [SHIRT] and MACAWIS or ALINDI

Also i found that in hobyo sultanate period the people used to wear COAT and MACAWIS even the coat is modern

the left one is more stunning we can use it even if its modern Yemenis use it as their traditional attire

btw our traditional attire now is out of cloak although many of the travel and explorers aimed our clothes and there was a cloak in it

Majority of the oldest somali men wear is always huwasho iyo hoos'gunti... we just need to have these in higher quality material and it's good to go.

Something that not even 2% of the Somali population weared isn't technically our general somali culture.

Also the huwasho and huwasho iyo hoosgunti can be styled in many many ways.

Majority of cultures wear what the upper middle class wore. Nobody says i wanna dress in my cultural heritage and wears peasant clothes.

these JOUKEs is widely worn by SOMALIS

The Omani cap called KUMA is originate from southern of somalia KOOFIYAD BARAAWE

"and the two leaders were wearing THOBE like KHAMIS" if u observe closer u can see they aren't somali...

Tassels in different cultures have roots meaning their uses and purpose can be traced... pls go on and tell me the cultural root of tassels in somali culture?

How many cultures used tassels? Even cawaans in Europe had them. Walahi stop begging it

We are our own worst enemies. Other ethnicities like to highlight the nobility class of their civilisation but we love to highlight the most destitute members of our society. They like to pretend all of our history is just nomads.

Somali niggas glaze cawaans in the desert instead of the actual people with culture on the Somali peninsula. It's a long day for our people walahi

Interesting approach on deciphering what the word “Jouke” could possibly mean. I have not found a single source mentioning it as a name for the aforementioned garment. “Joog” can be translated to a complete style or fashion“ Isku joog shaati iyo surwaal”. This could be a good step to make out a possible meaning to what “Jouke” is. Regarding the origins of this “Joog” check out my research on it and let me know what your thoughts are about this approach: Somali men formal attire, the Somali caftan
