New to you? Japanese Traditional Working Clothes for Your New Extraordinary Outfit!

These extraordinary pieces right here, do you recognize what they are? Today, we are going to introduce you Japanese traditional working wear called Cho Cho and a little bit of their history.
        Cho Cho is one of Japanese working clothes for Tobi construction workers, called Nikka Bokka or Gotogi. The shape usually gets extra buggy toward the bottom and turns narrower from the lower part to the uncle. The colors and the patterns differ from a region to another in Japan, yet White serge or Navy serge are likely to be preferred by more experienced workmen while young ones like to wear fancy colors like Red or Purple.

        There are functional reasons why those are made in this unique shape. The wide thigh makes it easy for them to bend their legs so that they can climb up and work anywhere high. They also function almost as 'cat whiskers.' Especially in iron frame construction, there are a lot of sharp edges sticking out to their path. The workers can sense any obstacles by having those buggy parts touching the sharp edges before their legs do. Additionally, since those workers work usually in very high places with strong wind, these pants are their air speedometer that wave in the wind for the workers on the ground to see if their coworkers up high are safe.
