Tibetan Chuba

The Tibetan Chuba is a traditional, ankle-length robe worn by Tibetan people, often made from wool or cotton to suit the high-altitude climate. It features a wrap-around design secured with a belt, and sometimes includes sleeves and a hood. The Chuba serves both practical purposes—providing warmth and protection against harsh weather—and cultural significance, reflecting regional identity and social status through its fabric, color, and decorations. Worn daily or during festivals and ceremonies, the Chuba is an enduring symbol of Tibetan heritage and craftsmanship.
