The Klan stole the design of their robes from the Spanish. I find it
ironic, since the Klan was rabidly anti-Roman Catholic at the time they
adopted the now-infamous robes in 1915. They hated Catholics, even if they
were white, as much as they hated Black people back then. Most Klan groups
today no longer hate Catholic whites.
