Can we have hakama?

[Risvertasashi]

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:

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.

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.

Something classlocked would be useless, though...

And, yes-ish (the yukata don't resemble real-life ones very much), but there's a reason yukata+summer skirt is so popular among female characters. I would just like something that meshes well for us guys too.

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.

Hakama for everyone! \O/

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

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

What do you mean? I wear it three times a week during my kenjutsu lessons, but my posture does not change.

You don't really notice when you're actually wearing it, but looking from the outside someone's standing posture changes slightly.
Hell if you wear them long enough your basic standing posture changes!
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
