šurrāb شُرّاب , pl. ‑āt (EgAr šurāb , šarāb – BadawiHinds1986)

n. 
stocking, sock – WehrCowan1979. 
šurrāb seems to be borrowed into MSA (probably via EgAr or LevAr) from Tu çorap, OttTu ǧūrāb ‘stocking, sock’, which most probably is from Pers ǧorāb, Ar ǧūrāb ~ ǧurāb ‘id.’ 
Nişanyan (13Nov2014) s.v. Tu çorap : OttTu cūrāb ‘stocking’, first attested in Meninski’s Thesaurus (1680). 
See ↗ǧurāb; but cf. also ↗ǧawrab and ↗ǧirāb. 
▪ Phonology and semantics of ǧurāb are almost impossible to disentangle because of mutual influence, and also interference from, and overlapping with, ↗ǧawrab (also meaning ‘socks, stockings’, but having a short ‑a‑ in the second syllable) and ↗ǧirāb ‘traveling bag, knapsack’.
