The Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, wore wool and did not adorn himself excessively in his clothing. He wore whatever was available, whether it was a wrap (shamlah), a striped cloak (burdah), or a woolen jubbah. The burdah is a striped garment, and a square black cloak with small patterns. The garment he loved most was the hibarah, which was a Yemeni cloak with red and white stripes. On Fridays, he would wear his red burdah, and on the two Eid festivals, he would wear a red cloak. He also wore a black woolen burdah. He also wore a nimrah, which is a striped cloak.
