The only white hakama I've seen are in photos of O'Sensei. Even Saotome Shihan wore blue or black at the seminars of his I've been to. One convenience drawback of a white hakama might be that it's appearance would soil easily, requiring washing after perhaps each class.

You gave me also a good chuckle, Amdur Sensei. I really like the contrast of white and black...sort of a yin-yang thing I suppose...and I have a yin-yang sewn on my left shoulder.

This was in Hikitsuchi Sensei's home dojo, so that may have had something to do with it as well. Personally I like the all white, looks very clean. I have to wash my Gi anyway right?
