You should better explain yourself quickly.

Broken vB code? Hate mongering?

Nice hakama!

After I saw that, I was thinking...Koreans wear white hakamas with black stripes down the side...hell Team USA should wear our stars and stripes!

INGENIUS, now USA can be more like Korea with sporty new Hakamas, thank you karatedepot.com!

Now I know who supplies those US karate open guys. Man, you would get laughed out of the dojo if you showed up looking like that!

I can only WISH I had one of those items...man if I went to a tournament like that, people would think I was the strongest guy in Kendo history... you know, for having the balls to wear such a thing..i must be pretty good to back up such tacky clothing

I was in an open tournament a few years ago (apologies for the non-Kendo content

), and was up against a fellow wearing the brightest, ugliest, tackiest uniform I have ever seen. He looked like he was a human NASCAR endorsement. Got my butt whipped, mainly because I thought I was having a fit from the bright flashing things in front of me

That was my excuse, anyway.

They look like them MC Hammer pants!

**"Rojindo"** · 1st December 2003, 08:41 PM

They look like simple, honest, god-fearing Hakama to ME.

Clearly an "American-know-how" improvement on the usual drab and frumpy "look" favored by those Nihon fellows. Of course, we'll need to modernize the rest of the gear too.

I'm thinking white nylon with metallic gold trim for the Gi, and a "soaring eagle" motif for the Do... and Men... both of which will be made of traditional injection-molded high-impact styrene (foam padded, of course). The Kote will be replaced by arm-length vinyl padded gloves with plenty of room for sponsors names up the arms.

And some specialized shoes.
