Chugha - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia "Chugha (variant of Shuqa) is a coat worn over clothes, usually during the cold winter months. Usually worn by men, these coats are adorned with intricate threading and come in a variety of colors and patterns.[1] It is worn in Central Asia, including Chitral, Pakistan, Uzbekistan, Afghanistan, Tajikistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and other surrounding countries. Outside of Afghanistan, readers may be familiar with the Pakol (Kaphor, Pakhor, Chitrali cap) often worn by poet Rachitrali." (source: Wikepedia, 2014)
