Anybody know this?

In my particular class I am the senior student, once i have reached an advanced rank in the class and maintain the "senior student" status, i can wear whatever kind of uniform i want. Just out of sheer arrogance, and because i think it looks cool --- What is that silk overcoat they wear in Hwarangdo? the one that is longer than the usual dobuk, and it's black. I don't want the uniform they wear, i want that style of overcoat. I've already cleared it with kwanjangnim, he said it would be fine for tournaments and demo's if i wanted. I can't for the life of me figure out what it is called, i can't find anywhere that sells anything like it... any help would be appreciated.

In the future don't double post like that.

Do you enter tournaments or fashion shows?

I've competed in at least one fashion tournament. I lost by knock out to the guy on the left there.

What do you train? Really...what do you train and where that you can where an uniform of a different style in your class and that your teacher approves of this bullshit?

Is there a Kyokushin/Enshin/Ashihara/Seidokaikan/Daido Juku Dojo near your dojang? If there is wear their gi with a big black belt, hell better, wear a red one. Than invite them to your dojang for some friendly sparring. Let a classmate tape it and post it here.

Maybe after that you stay humble enough to only wear your dobok in class.

Does it look anything like this?

If so, It's called a General's Uniform and you can only get one if you're a BB in Kuk Sool Won or Hanminjok Hapkido.

I think we can all agree that's pretty hot, but here's what I don't get: if I'm going to get dressed to the 9's for Glamor Shots, I'm going to put on some effin' shoes!

Maybe generals don't wear shoes in Korea? Probly a Der question...

I'll stick to my JudoGi man..

Those doboks have to be tailored to Tuxedo specs, so they're pretty expensive. You're not supposed to wear shoes, but some people wear like wrestling shoes with them.

In reality, Generals don't wear those.. As you can see, none of those people are Generals.. LOL. They are pretty much LARP clothes.
