Clothes worn in karate

Answer 1

The uniform varies from style to style and school and school.

The uniform is called a gi in Japanese styles.

I believe it is a tobuk in Korean styles.

Beginners wear a white uniform with a belt from white to brown (in kenpo karate).

and Masters wear a black uniform and the belt they have earned.

In my style of Okinawa Karate, white is the only color allowed for anyone.

Answer 2

The uniform typically worn for karate is a dogi, or gi with an obi. There is no requirement to wear a specific uniform when you practice, but most schools require a uniform.
Most schools wear Gi's, which are (most of the time) white in color, along with their belt or sash(if they have a ranking system).

Answer 3

Underpants are a must for guys and Jock strap. Underwear and some sort of support for the breasts for women. Depending on whether you are sparring or not, a cup and shin guards may be required.

Answer 4

For Kyokushinkia Karate you should wear a white Gi with all badges on and the Gi must go left over right, you should also wear your belt tied up correctly (wear belt according to grade) and you should also wear you hair tied up if it is long.

Answer 5

Well if you go to a karate class you should know that you have to wear something called a dogi, (Normally referred to as a 'gi') which is your karate gear. Based on the judo uniforms, it is typically white with a belt that indicates your level of learning. My beginning students are not required to wear any specific uniform, but should have one before their first test.

There are some types of karate where mouth guard, gloves, foot coveers, cup, elbow, knee, and shin pads are required for sparring.

Answer 6

That depends greatly on the place where you study karate. The biggest item is the gi itself. The heavy material protects the wearer. In my school, that is all you wear. In some, you must wear a cup, pads on the hands and feet and headgear. Your instructor will know what you need.
