About
Kung Fu and Kung Fu Uniforms: Kung
Fu literally means energy (Kung) and time (Fu). In China, the
word Kung Fu came to be identified with the martial arts because
according to Chinese tradition, proficiency in a martial system
required at least ten years of devoted practice.
Today, Chinese Kung Fu suits or Kung Fu Uniform
are worn not only for martial arts practices, but as costumes
for any special occasions, like Chinese New Year and Halloween
or costume parties.
Kung Fu suits usually come with a long or short
sleeve shirt with Mandarin collar, Chinese frog treat buttons,
fold-up cuffs on the sleeves and matching pants.
Men usually wear the Kung Fu suit, but it is
becoming increasingly common for women to wear them too
