Description: The penis sheath worn by older men is a remarkable piece of traditional attire. This simple yet significant garment is crafted from tanned sheepskin and extends into a short streamer. Its plain leather material reflects the wisdom and dignity of its wearer. This traditional attire, with its lack of elaborate adornments, symbolises the enduring connection between generations and serves as a reminder of the passage of time, embodying cultural tradition and heritage.
