To my memory a tribon was a chiton, not a cloak, which Socrates was supposedly used to wearing, imitating the simply dressed Spartans. Its name could suggest a very rough material, although to be honest could also indicate a roughly used garment.
Is Plutarch saying that it was a cloak and not a chiton?
Khaire
Giannis
