SB Canto 7

A person in the renounced order of life may try to avoid even a dress to cover himself.
SB 7.13.2, Translation:

A person in the renounced order of life may try to avoid even a dress to cover himself. If he wears anything at all, it should be only a loincloth, and when there is no necessity, a sannyāsī should not even accept a daṇḍa. A sannyāsī should avoid carrying anything but a daṇḍa and kamaṇḍalu.
