Your talking about wrap pants. They're ridiculously easy to make.

No worries, brotha. While we're on the subject of pants. Has anyone found a good link for a Traditional Hakama tutorial?

I've got a bunch of links up on our garb page, but this one is supposed to be an accurate hakama pattern:

That's how I get wrap pants. Really,they are good beginner. But you can't wash them in a machine, the cotton is pretty thin and they're kind of a pain to fight in. But for like $16 once you do shipping it's a good deal.

That's what I do, only I have to make them hella bigger:



More like that. I'm 6'1" with a ~36" actual waist (~200#).

The one Isk linked is the one all of mine are made from. They're kickin' rad, and very similar to the 'authentic' pair I have. Minus the backplate, of course.

Edit: Also, wrap pants on dudes make you look like a giant nerd. Just FYI.
