Recommended Posts

why does swordsmans, ninjas or like any fighters that you see in the movies, books, or games wear tape or like a white type of bandge around their stomach and ribs area. it seems like it's only people from japan that wears that stuff. does it protect you from being cut or punching or kicking techniques.

In the old days they used to wear that underneath their clothes. I don't know if it was some kind of back support or to keep their back warm. Keeping your back warm leads to less back injuries. I don't know this for a fact. What I do know is that it's some kind of traditional Japanese underwear. :)

Just going out on a limb here. They got broken or sore ribs from a fight.

Oh, on the outside. Yeah, that's because their clothes didn't have buttons or fasteners like European clothes. It was practical first, decoration second just like all clothing is.
