Buddhist Monks

In South-East Asia, Theravada Buddhist monks and nuns wear saffron coloured robes. The traditional uniform of a Buddhist monk or nun is a saffron coloured robe, no shoes and shaved head. The uniform identifies the person as a monk/nun and represents what they believe in which is simplicity and detachment of materialism.
