The Dress
The dress used in Krabi-Krabong demonstrations is the same as that worn by ancient Thai warriors; a tunic, sleevelesss or with long sleeves, with sacred inscriptions, and wide-legged mid-calf-length trousers.
In addition, the demonstrator will wear a Monkon which is made of sacred cotton thread. In ancient time, the Monkon would be worn all the time even during the fight, as the Monkon is a sacred charm which the pupil received from his teacher, and will provide him with confidence in fighting to win as well as to safeguard him from dangers.
