When winters start, wearing Pheran becomes compulsory in a way that otherwise cold🥶 wouldn't let us have and let us be.
I believe what a person is wearing has an impact "positive Or negative" on ones efficiency in doing his/her work. Although the scale may different and so can be the person talked about.
Dull as it may seem, Pheran is an integral and never ending part of Kashmiri culture.
It's an essential to keep oneself warm. Generally made from fabric of wool, it's extremely efficient in isolating major parts of body from the surrounding.
Pheran in common is a long robe of warm cloth to keep oneself warm in cold weathers. It is loosely stitched so that there is enough room for firepot "Kangri".
The fabric need not be wool, however being warm is extremely important.
