    The pants are the worst looking by far in my opinion, I think that they should of been the baggy kind of pants like Magus/Mirage/Marduk's.

    Agreed. The rest of the pieces aren't that bad, I like the look of the full Mavi attire way better.

    I only really HATED the hat, but I hate about 90% of the hats in this game anyways. The body always looked good to me, but overall it is such a stark white. Too clean, but the motif is decent.

    Goggles and a Mask would have been preferred personally. Like the Ginhaku Hatsuburi with more Goggle like eyes. Think "Sand People" from Star Wars.

    The head piece makes me think of Roger from American Dad when he dressed up like a belly dancer.

    Sometimes you just have to laugh at yourself, you would cry your eyes out if you didn't.

    On the Mavi looking like a very uncoordinated bunch of clothing that doesn't match: BLUs cast a mixed bag of crazy out there spells from all sorts of different monsters. So in that sense the theme of the AF3 look is to dress as random and varied as your abilities.

    Personally, I like the style, and the whole set does coordinate. Mavi is Turkish for "blue." This is an example of Turkish winter clothing:

    The loose-fitting "poncho" like shirt served several purposes for those who traveled through the harsher locales of the Middle East by horseback. Not only did it help to keep you warm at night and help circulate air to your skin during the day, its loose fitting style served to block sand that may be blown by the wind, so that the rider behind you would not get as much thrown at him. The scarf around the neck is a traditional cape-enclosure worn by many to keep the sand from getting down the collar of their shirts. The turban is self-explanatory. The gloves are not only reskins of the magus and mirage sets, but they are a good example of what a Turkish traveler might wear. They were open at the fingers to allow maximum dexterity while still protecting the palm from getting burned by the leather of the horse's reigns and the knuckles from being chafed by the wind and sand. The tight pants(tayt is pronounced very similarly to the word "tight") were, again, ideal for riding so that the rider would not get caught in stirrups or, again, to catch any sand that might be walked in or blown around. The boos were also rather traditional in the Turkish style. I'm not sure of the practical applications of the boots' design. Here's an image of the whole ensemble:
