NB Post not to be taken seriously
Cool - so we can be fashion victims and choose from:
Floor-length hak - sophisticated, covers one's modesty, needs washing often.
Ankle-length hak - standard, what everyone's wearing, good choice for most situations.
Knee-length hak - great for more active pursuits, horseriding etc.
Mini-hak - shows off those designer gi pants to a tee, or legs if you've got 'em!
Hot-hak - dare to bare - only recommended for the younger adults or those toned enough to get away with it, can also be used for Sumo.
