Liturgical use

The cowl is the choir habit of Benedictine, Cistercian and Premonstratensian monastic communities. Worn over the ordinary habit during the Liturgy of the Hours, the conventual Mass and the solemn celebrations of the monastic year, the cowl confers visual unity on the community at prayer. The micromonastic fabric ensures comfortable wearability, breathability and resistance to repeated washing — essential qualities for a garment in daily use in communities of common life.
