'''Dumpra''' (also '''dumprá'''; [[Lepcha language|Lepcha]] for "male dress") is the traditional dress of [[Lepcha people|Lepcha men]]. It consists of a multicolored, hand-woven cloth pinned at one shoulder and held in place by a waistband called a ''gyatomu'', usually worn over a white shirt and trousers. With it, men wear a flat round cap called a ''thyáktuk'', with stiff black velvet sides and a multicolored top topped by a knot. Rarely, the traditional cone-shaped [[bamboo]] and [[rattan]] hats are worn.<ref>{{cite book|last=Plaisier |first=Heleen |year=2007 |title=A Grammar of Lepcha |volume=5 |series=Tibetan studies library: Languages of the greater Himalayan region |publisher=[[Brill Publishers|Brill]] |location=Leiden, The Netherlands; Boston |isbn=978-90-04-15525-1 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=DpCXEc_9RWcC |page=4}}</ref><ref>{{cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=0ACBAAAAMAAJ |title=Family, marriage, and social change on the Indian fringe |first=S.
