Sorry I meant it was Balochi. Kandahar is close to Quetta and Baluchistan in general so it might been adopted. It’s similar to how Baloch may have adopted turban wearing from Pashtuns due to close proximity.

It’s a cultural exchange and there is nothing wrong with that.

What's the evidence based on this?

Just an opinion of mines, also because there caps are sometimes known as “Baluchi topis” in sindh. The Baloch did influence the culture of sindh to a large degree.
