Baloch traditional clothing (Balochi:جامگ، پوچ) is a historical and contemporary aspect of Baloch heritage and deep association between the traditional dress and Baloch ethnic identity.[1]
Dress code and personal upkeeping are among the cultural values, which distinguish a Baloch from others. The Baloch dress and personal upkeeping very much resemble the Parthian ways. Surprisingly, no significant changes can be observed in the Balochi dress since the ancient times.[2]
The clothing of the Baloch people consists of various styles of kameez and shalwar, turban, shoes and head scarfs. Balochi embroidery decorations on dresses is a tradition in Baloch culture including Balochi cap, jackets, belts, ladies purse, shoulder bags, and many other items.[3]
Baloch men wear a dress named Jameh or Jamak. It consists of two parts; one is upper body clothing and the other is a loose skirt reaching to the knee. trouser(shalwar) has approximately 2.2 m wide.[4]
The men's shalwar kameez consists of a very baggy shalwar troser[5] which uses large lengths of cloth.[6] The kameez is also loose,[7] which traditionally is long with long sleeves.[8]
