What about a streimel and long reckel? They wore it not to mix with the goyim. Someone wanted to prove from the Torah to wear a long reckel. It was told to the Jews to borrow clothing and place it on their children. Why not on themselves? It was too short. However, maybe it says, I have not seen a forsaken tzadik whose children look for bread. When the children and father need bread, the children come first. So the clothing is used for the children first.
