Any guys on here know how to tie a men's longyi? Ares has one, and its tied a certain way, and I'm having trouble figuring out how to do it.

Tie A Longyi
- Thread starter JustGeorge
- Start date
For some reason, I'm having a heck of a time with that fold...
Ares is a much smaller guy than these gentlemen.
I've never even heard of a longyi.
They're comfortable, and worn by both men and women.
However, men's and women's longyis use different fabric, and are fastened differently.
I bought a few from our local Asian grocery store. We have a lot of Burmese folks here; often the grocery store will cater to their needs.

I often wear a sarong at home . Very comfortable.

Any advice on how to keep them on a very slim young man?
I avoid things that need tying.
Hence the Crocs & Sketchers Slip-Ins.
I can still remember how to tie a bowline knot though.

You could wear a woman's longyi. Fold and tuck.
Trouser braces ...
Mrs Revolt barely tolerates my current fashion choices.
I don't dare rock that unstable boat.

I just tie it with a simple knot after wrapping once around. Back in Malaysia(when I was alot slimmer), I suppose I just did more than one wrap.
Not sure if that helped. There's probably a better way
Jedster the not very good wrapper
He tied it a few different times, but it kept coming undone. Eventually, he was disappointed and gave up, complaining about needing pins(I use pins on mine, as the last thing I need is to have to chase him down the street and have my longyi fall).

Have you tried trouser braces as @ChristineM suggested.
I just googled trouser braces and see that there are lots out there the he(your son) might like to match with the sarong. He could look like a super hero.

We're working on securing him a pair.
But, he wants to wear his with black pants and no shirt, so he can look like his favorite superhero in a favored video:

Nor me. Assumed it was a type of Korean noodle.

Sounds great to me.
Coincidentally, I discovered Queen some months back when I randomly watched Bohemian Rhapsody. Just loved it.
I have yet to see that.

Take a few hours to your self and enjoy. It's on Netflix, and probably elsewhere, and is 2hrs 14mins long.
