Female characters get the skirt to go with their yukatas, but male characters... there's not really a lot of options.
So I was just wondering if there's any chance of a hakama being put into the game for us guys?
In case anyone's wondering what it is, it's basically very loose-fitting, pleated trousers traditional to feudal Japan. (Not traditional with yukata I know but the yukata in game aren't traditional anyway.) Or to quote wikipedia directly:
Quote:
The clothing worn under the bōgu comprise a jacket (kendogi or keikogi) and hakama, a garment separated in the middle to form two wide trouser legs.
Can we have hakama?

I am sure it will be introduced with the Samurai class.
In theory, the Yukata in game are summer dresses - that means that legs should be exposed anyway. -

the summer skirt is used as a replacement for the hakama even on female characters, I believe. Lots of people trying to make their char look manga-like with that combination.

I used the sailor brais instead of the long skirt but hakamas would be cool :p

the problem is, and what a lot of people don't tell you about wearing a hakama (i've worn one myself) that your standing posture changes.
If they did add them, they'd only come to about the knee. The traditional long yukata is unisex anyway, until you start adding designs :P -
11-12-2014, 03:26 AMRemilia_NightfallWhat do you mean? I wear it three times a week during my kenjutsu lessons, but my posture does not change.Quote:

Also, remember what you have to do to sit down properly.
Basically, it would either look awkward on the character models, or require reworking them. -

The closest thing I've found is Plain Long Skirt :)

11-12-2014, 04:48 AMSadanaerm, what? I've worn hakama and they certainly aren't knee length (at least not any I've seen). O.o The kosode itself is about knee length, you don't want this hanging out the bottom. While we at it... let's ask for nagabakama too... be damn impressive to move around in those suckers. xDQuote:

...though as others are posting, I guess that long skirt might still be close enough-ish. (But hakama would be better ：D) -

Hakama traditionally go to the ankles like a full-length skirt. Traditional formal dress for a man would be kimono + hakama (and probably haori, a kind of jacket). (And yeah, you wouldn't normally wear one with a yukata).
I wore one earlier this year and will be doing so again at my wedding in Japan soon.
They should add kimono/haori/hakama for wedding/"Eternal Bond" stuff too! (Also wedding kimono + tsunokakushi for female characters) It is the traditional wedding outfit for Japan, although most Japanese wear western-style clothes for weddings these days.
Kendo hakama might be a little different than the usual hakama, possibly (especially outside Japan).

My girlfriend has a yukata, but it is longer than the one in FFXIV. Her's has flowers on it.

Sure, a hakama would be fine. But i would really like to see Realm Reborn include the "Haka", a dance made famous by sports teams in New Zealand.

11-12-2014, 03:37 PMsadriusYeah, but unfortunately, it gives youQuote:
