Macawis is from maʿwaz (pl. maʿāwiz), as Yemenis call it.

The President and one other gentleman in these pictures are wearing white macwiis that are clearly different from what are usually seen. Can someone tell me what they are? They look like more than just white for Ciid and I don't think they were made in China.
