The KKK was formed because some white Americans were worried about losing their way of life to the different cultures that were coming in with the immigrants and African-Americans that were coming to America. The people that joined the KKK wanted to put these "threats" back in their places and show them that white, Anglo-Saxon Americans were the prominent race.

What other religions wear clothes like the KKK?

The KKK is a cult and not a religion although they would like you to believe otherwise. Some monks do wear cloaks with the pointed hoods lowered over their faces, but nothing like the KKK covering their faces with holes for their eyes and a flap for their mouths. If you believe in what you are doing and you don't have anything to hide then there is no reason to hide behind a costume such as the KKK. The modern KKK works in a different manor now and only wear their sheets (the leader is in red) at private meetings.
