    Maori Equivalent

    About a year ago a photo appeared in The Press, Christchurch, New Zealand of two people painting a church building on Banks Peninsula, east of the city. The young man is wearing a pair of shorts and a Maori kilt, called a piupiu. The shorts are courtesy of European culture.

    Photo below. Sorry, I have lost the name of the Press photographer.


    Also here is a website for made to order piupiu (no S in the Maori plural). Anybody game for this garment?
