In cold climates Roman soldiers wore a hooded paenula. This was a cloak which was like a poncho and normally did not have a hood. It came in two parts sown at the front, so that it could be thrown back to leave the arms relatively free. It was made of Gausapa wool imbued with lanolin, an oil which made it water-resistant (paenula gausapina). It could also be made of leather (paenula scortea) which was suited for colder weather. Underneath, they wore a long sleeved woollen tunic.
From the second century AD the paenula was also used by travelling civilians for protection against cold and rain and could come with or without a hood. It came to be used in the city of Rome for the same purpose. The sumptuary law of 382 made it proper everyday dress of senators, instead of the military cloak called sagum. The toga became the attire for state occasions.
