We shouldn't accept climate change as inevitable or stop trying to effect change. That said, what sort of clothing is out there which might help as we feel more negative effects?

The main thing I'm thinking about is dealing with heat, but I guess part of the question involves a little forecasting about the types of challenges people will face in the future.

Where to buy? I’m not living in the Middle East

The internet? Just find a website that ships in your country. Hopefully one with a return policy, in case you don't like what shows up.

What to search for? How are these things called?

According to @guyrocket@kbin.social, one type is called a kaftan. A quick search yielded at least a dozen different sites, like Temu or kafko.

Full disclosure, I have never worn any of these, nor have a shopped for these or even visited those sites before. I just wanted to help and did a quick search.

I come from hot, humid climates. What we usually wore were materials like linen. Since they were wetter environments, shorts and shirts reigned supreme. Longer clothing loses the thermodynamic benefits when wet.
