Mongolian traditional clothes have been around for centuries, and they are still worn by many people today. The most common type of Mongolian traditional clothing is the deel, which is a long robe that is worn over other clothing.

Deels are typically made from wool or cotton, and they can be decorated with a variety of colorful patterns. Deel is not only stylish, but it also helps to keep people warm in the frigid Mongolian winters.

Mongolian men typically wear pants and a shirt under their deel, although they may also wear a vest or jacket. Mongolians often accessories their traditional clothing with belts, hats, and scarves.

Mongolian traditional clothing is both practical and beautiful, and it is an important part of Mongolian culture.

HATS

In Mongolia, hats are an important part of traditional dress. Mongolian hats come in many different styles, depending on their region of origin and the occasion for which they are worn. Men and women both can wear traditional Mongolian Hat.

For important occasions, Mongolians may wear ornate hats adorned with feathers, beads, and other adornments. In recent years, Mongolian hats have become popular among visitors to the country as well. Many tourists purchase the Deel or other hats as souvenirs of their time in Mongolia.

Although hats are no longer mandatory attire in Mongolia, they are still commonly worn on special occasions or when traditional dress is required. For me, hats will always be a reminder of my Mongolian heritage.

BELTS

Mongolians have a long and proud history of traditional belt-making. For centuries, Mongolian Beltmakers have been using only the finest materials to create intricate belts that are both beautiful and functional.

They are commonly seen at weddings, funerals, and other important ceremonies. Mongolian belts are also frequently given as gifts to loved ones. I am proud to wear a Mongolian traditional belt. Every time I put it on, I feel connected to the rich history of my people.

Mongolian Boots

The Mongolian boots are not only beautiful but also very comfortable. I have been wearing Mongolian traditional boots since I was a child. In the winter, they keep my feet warm, and keep cool in the summer.

Mongolian traditional boots were designed to protect the feet from cold and wet weather conditions. Additionally, if you love riding a horse you must consider Mongolian traditional boots.
