Kilts in martial arts

[thoth51]

I think I've mentioned it here before, the Indonesian martial art of Silat is traditionaly practiced using a tube sarong, get the (incredibly expensive) video at http://www.coldsteel.com/vdfs.html
Silat would be very compatible with a kilt.

I'm afraid I must disagree.



The sarong as you can see, is worn OVER pants, and even so the traditional wear is mostly reserved for performances. In training and tournaments, silat practitioners usually wear a black gi like garment, sans sarong:



In most forms of martial arts, it seems there's a bias towards pants.
