Clothing and what to wear is a interesting subject. I mean you can't change your life and what you because there coudl eb a attack around every corner , LOL. That is living in fear and that shoudl not be allowed to continue. Meaning you can change that. IE live in a bad area, simple fix.. move, etc.....
When it comes to clothing that might be too tight for high kicking or above the waist kicking, i wouldn't even worry about that. In a reallife street situation you should not be using higher risk maneuvers liek high kicks etc. Stick to the basics and what works effectively everytime. GO check out stuff from Demi Barbito and you will see what I mean. I do liek what was posted on a earlier post about practicing in different types of clothes that you wear. TO understand the limitations of certain clothing. Not all of us can afford to walk around all day, in BDU's , sweat pants, baggy clothes etc.... You to adapt and make due with what you wear on a regular everyday basis. Key point is avoidance. Avoids areas where encounters are likely to occur. Watch your corners, don't let stranger within 5-6 feet of you etc....... I am not saying be paranoid about everyone and everything, just go with your gut Sorry of I went off on a tangent. It's just my point is that it is not healthy to be walking around with the mentality of WOW i coudl be attacked at anytime. That is very negative. Just train hard and be confident in your training. What you are wearing and how long your hair is, is not gonig to make that much of a difference. Yes there are a billion WHAT IF's but I pity the person who sits around everyday worrying about all of them.
