    Great video!
    I can add that in Muay Thai the Mongkong (Mongkol) in old school days was a Buddhist scroll rolled up and wrapped around the head. It was then blessed by the monks at the temple where you make a donation and ask for blessings.
    The angle of the tassle denotes where you're from. Her monkong angled down indicating her kaimuay (or fight gym) was from the south. If it points up theyre from the north of Siam. Same if its pointing straight out to the middle, central Siam. The mongkong must always be kept high up , put in a place of honor because it protects the part of you closest to heaven. So it must never go between the ropes, it must go over, thats why Thai fighters always go over the top rope. After the prayer by ur coach he' ll hold it or put it on the corner post (the highest point).
    The Praijet (arm bands) likewise often had a small charm or Buddhist sculpture wrapped up in cord and blessed.
    The Malai (flower garland) was often gifted to you and blessed by the same monks. Marigolds are traditional to honor the gold color of the King of Siam. I was gifted an amulet made from the ashes of a Buddhist temple that burned down along with the monks inside. Their spirits were to protect me.
    Corner men and cut men usually wear the vest indicating ur camp. Some fighters wear boxing robes to keep warm.
    Lastly, ur last name fighting is the name of the camp, plus "Sit" ( student of). Like Sityodtong, means student of Yodtong. I fought under Vongphet (Kru Vong ,Kru Phet ) so my name was Damien Sitvongphet. Kinda long but hope it sheds some light.

    For TKD is worth noting that for competitive poomsae (forms) is prefered a "Y" shaped as in other martial arts style gis. Nowadays for young competitors the norm is using blue pants for boys and red for girls, from 15 years old and up, black pants are used and for senior categories, a golden (brownish) upper part of the dobok can be used. Also some doboks are actually made out of different materials (very plastic-like) to enhance the sound.

    you could also compare every "lesson 1" in said martial art. for example, when i learned tkd in korea, the very first thing they had me do is a lot of running, standing in all sorts of poses (horse stance is half of it) and they would make me do "duck walks" in the mountains nearby. we mostly focused on the leg conditioning for a few months before they had me learn the blocks (redirecting) and then how to punch and lastly how to kick. that was all before i was able to get a yellow belt. the reason we condition our legs before we get the yellow belt was apparent once i got the belt. we immediately started training on flexibility and the actual basics. i can't imagine doing any of them if my legs weren't up for it. it would have been very exhausting. idk if it was because i learned tkd in a "not sport tkd" kwan (dojo), but i remember learning the history of korean martial arts' origin from my kwanjangnim (sensei). so that was also part of "lesson 1" for me. according to him, korean martial arts' origin is from an ancient book from northern china. their martial arts used a lot of kicking which differs from the southern style (kicking was introduced to karate the "southern style" later with savate). this "kick heavy" style was perfect for korea because we were already conditioned from all the mountains we had to travel through. the original style was lost with time but the remnants are still there. to see what it might have looked like back then, we can look at taekkyon which also uses kicks but is different from tkd and hkd in the way they they constantly move (like capoeira) to generate power. it is thought that this constant movement is from that time. tkd and hkd are more similar to today's karate (influenced by the japanese invasion) than taekkyon which is from an earlier dynasty. knowing the history was one way to keep us motivated to learn (i guess it's like the blessings from muay thai). of course, idk if other tkd or hkd gyms teaches the history like ours did, but i feel like it was a very important part of learning the martial arts. makes me appreciate it more.

    But in fact the Judogi was the first modern martial arts uniform, inspired by japanese clothes but reinforced to handle the gripping.
    The fabric is called "Sashiko" or "Rice Grain" and it's made from cotton... Originally sleeves used to be shorter but evolved to be easier to grip... Fun Fact, the blue judogi was introduced at the end of the 90's, before that the only difference between the opposite judokas on a contest was the belt color... Red or White (Japanese competitions still use that), but the blue gi was included for the TV broadcast, because was easier for the viewers (specially the people who doesn't know Judo), identify the competitors on the mat.

    Missing the one for "the streets" with Icy Mike. But that can be a whole video on it's own as per how do you dress outside the dojo and are you dressed in a manner that you can execute your techniques or dressed for style? Do you carry a bag or have pockets full of whatever (not pocket sand or maybe you do have pocket sand...). In all, address the wear outside the Dojo or training club.
    Excellent video as usual, I mean, does 1 of your video flat out is bad?? Doubtful. And Props on having Ando in there. Always a nice face to see lolol. Definitely would have made it better with Icy Mike and Ando actually shaking hands and possibly rolling to squash that salami mock chicken beef. Love em both for different reasons

    Cool vid, I love getting into the origins of all things martial arts. I think it'd be fun to dig into the history of Daoist robes. It seems like it probably has an actual deeper history than the other modern kung fu uniforms, since it isn't just tied to the Daoist martial arts, but seems to also have ritual significance.

    Don't forget Eskrima-Kali-Arnis/FMA. Our dojo teaches primarily E-K-A, but we're in a Karate federation. After Level 1/yellow belt test, students may wear a heavy weight Karate Gi in white or black. However, mostly everyone wears exercise pants & T-shirts. Uniforms are only required for belt test days. We earn special coloured uniforms for each Dan rank as well (1st - 6th degree).

    Seth, dearest brother, I am immensely fascinated by the different martial arts uniforms and the backgrounds behind each of them. I may love all the uniforms from Kung Fu to Muay Thai to Karate to Tae Kwon Do to Judo to Brazilian Jujitsu, but when it comes to favourite martial arts uniforms and martial arts as a whole I would have to give it to Judo, Brazilian Jujitsu, Karate, and Tae Kwon Do because I find them utterly wonderful for the body as well as finding that combination of strength and technique and I find their respective Gi to be utterly intriguing in design and history. It also helps that I am a nerd who has always been into Street Fighter and Tekken, especially embodied by the likes of Gouken, Akuma, Ryu Hoshi, Ken Masters, Paul Phoenix, Kazuya Mishima, and Jin Kazama.

    I own several of the different brand of TKD uniforms but I look for quality comfort and lightness, all this because you need to feel good while training and teaching. The color combo depend on you or the competition you are taking part in. For Dan level in the stricter schools the side strips is representative of seniority in rank and it is respected. The color is just a matter of taste, for example some like blue , other like red or grey and some prefer black. The best uniforms are lightweight and strong made of multi fabric blend for durability and comfort.

  • @MikeOliveri

    I don't have a source other than my teachers, but I was taught that the karate gi and judo gi were similar to the clothes the Japanese would wear under their other garments, like under silks to keep them from getting soaked with sweat, or underneath armor for comfort. They were just comfortable clothes until they became standardized.

    You should also add Chinese Shuai Jiao (wrestling) jackets, and compare their short sleeves to Judo/BJJ's longer sleeves, even though the traditional materials and overall looks are similar. The belts are also tied differently.

    On TKD [11:25]: The standard uniform is always white. It depends on which style you practice as to what the design of the top is, but they're all called "dobok" (in contrast to karate's dogi). The name "dobok" is a reference to traditional Korean formal-wear called "hanbok". Certain dobok look more or less like hanbok depending on the style and usage.
    There are three major styles/groups in TKD: Kukki Taekwondo, Chang-Hon Taekwon-Do, and Traditional Tae Kwon Do.
    - Kukki Taekwondo, which Master Wright seems to practice, uses an all-white V-neck uniform that, other than the V-neck is identical to a standard karate dogi; black belts wear a black/red collar if under 15 years old and a solid black collar if 15 and older, but the rest of the uniform remains white. Any uniform colors other than white (with two pants-based exceptions*) are non-standard and just that particular school or practitioner deciding to change things.
    - Chang-Hon Taekwon-Do (ITF) uses sort of a half-crossover style top where just the fringing of the collar overlaps to form the V-neck shape (look up ITF uniforms to see what I mean). Chang-Hon uses a series of black fringing and stripes down the uniforms to denote ranks. Black fringing along the bottom of the shirt is used for first through third Dan; solid black lines down the sides of the sleeves denote fourth through sixth Dan; double sleeve lines denote grand-master levels higher than that.
    - Traditional Tae Kwon Do: These styles are closest to karate or tang-su-do (some are literally tangsudo), so they tend to just use lighter-weight karate dogi.
    *[13:31] The two exceptions to Kukki Taekwondo practitioners using all-white uniforms are for official forms/demonstration competitions and for very special high-level sparring competitions (basically just the Olympics). As Master Wright mentioned, in the past Olympics, athletes were given special permission to use country-specific pants if they wanted to. Other than that Kukki Taekwond poomsae (forms) competitors or demo-team competitors must wear specially designed "y-neck" uniforms -- these follow the same principles as the standard uniforms except that they use cross-over-style tops where only the top section of the collar is colored black (or black/red). The pants for the Poomsae Competition Uniform are colored depending on the age and gender of competitor, but basically they're either red or some shade of blue. If you are over 51 y/o and competing in forms, you get to wear a yellow-colored uniform top.
    Also on the topic of competitions and colors, for sparring at the national level and higher, you are required to wear matching red or blue chest protectors and head gear. Thus you'll see most higher-level sparring competitors own two pairs of head gear (one red, one blue) just for that reason.
    As for fabrics, I'd say they're largely the same as the options available to karate-ka. There are super thin, lightweight dobok used for kyeorugi (competition sparring), there are crisp medium weight dobok with special fabric patterns to make forms competitors' movements sound better, and there are thicker fancy instructor uniforms that are designed to last a long time and work better with grabs and throws. I'd say that, in general, the upper end of fabric thicknesses for TKD uniforms is probably lower than that of karate uniforms, but there's a lot of overlap.

    In TKD, a lot of people tend to wear a sports polo and taekwondo pants when training and then the full dobok for official events - for some reason my current school goes the other way with colours in that you start with a black dobok and move to a white one when you get to the more senior kup levels and then the black belts have a white dobok with a black collar (but some have their own not with the school emblem and those are all different colours like navy blue). However, in official events everyone wears the school dobok with the colour matching their experience level

      ​​​@@fikriasrofi5312 there's no standardization in either the nomenclature and the system. Depending on the organization they use cords slightly different, which are: cordel (thin cord made of silk), and corda/cordão (thicker cord made of cotton or silk). Each organization also defines the colours utilized.
