Polish dancers, 2006. The man wears a sukmana.
A sukmana is a type of traditional coat worn by peasants in Poland,[1] and some other European (especially Slavic) countries,[2] as well as Hungary (where it was known as szokmány). It was particularly common from the 18th to early 20th centuries. It was made from a simple, hand woven wool fabric comparable to russet cloth, and usually retained its natural white or grayish color.[2][3] The coat was long, with sleeves, and wider towards the lower parts.[3]
It was worn by men and sometimes by women.
