if the hakama is required to cover features that would be a distraction to practice....then I should wear a full body hakama to keep from frightening my partners on the mat!!!

My main question is if anybody knows where and when the hakama became forbidden in some dojos until a certain rank.

I was asked....and I am trying to find the answer.

As I said...I am going through some previous threads to gain some info on this.

Thanks
