Maybe I'd better save up and spend my money to go over there!

That ain't no miniskirt.

And I'm pretty sure that's not a girl wearing it either (but I like the concept).

This ain't a miniskirt either. A lady I lensed last time I was in Japan, though I wouldn't mind to 'shoping out the one on the right.

Miniskirt or not it would be my pleasure to take the lady in white out to a mountaintop anytime.

That dress, may have cost 10 grand US. Or more. That, and the wooden shoes, are hardly climbing apparel. :lol:

Looks like here even I could afford one (for guys). Although I might look pretty strange in downtown Sac! Unless I was working in a sushi bar. Cool enough, then.

LOL- They use the same model for the regular and the plus size kimonos!

Yet I don't know what Vitaliy is talking about, unless it's the first link in the thread. This one is cute 1000Pks. Not worth a $10K dress, maybe needs some dental work, but she deserves a trip out, or two.

I can believe that. Hard for me to tell if that dress is a $200-300 version or in the four figures. But if I had it to spare certainly replace if after it gets ripped and soiled, from climbing.

Stuff like this Korean geometric analysis below, is probably why a lot of Asian women like the pants under a mini skirt -

Are you saying the analysis is not intended to communicate how short the skirts need to be?

I like the whole stocking idea though. Functional and fashionable.

I am i the only one to find this quite ridiculous ?

How can mountaineering be trendy and stylish. Japanese probably don't realize that Fuji is a serious climb.
I'm sure you can't climb Denali,Everest, or any other mountain actually requiring equipment

When I visited SE Asia earlier this year, was hoping I WOULD NOT meet this woman on a deserted
sidewalk.
