    Re: Sarong or So Wrong?

    There ARE American variants on the sarong:

    American Samoa is a part of the USA and the lava-lava (even sometimes in near-canvas weight as military uniform bottom) is a man's form of unpleated kilt.

    In addition, the Hawaiian men's pareo is a legitimate American variant of unbifurcated tropical garment.

    I've worn a Hawaiian shirt, canvas khaki kilt, sandals and a straw hat a bit in that spirit. I wear the Hawaiian shirt open and over a T-shirt.
    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…
