    Usually people don’t drag their skirt on the ground like the cuffs of those pants. It’s a stupid design, the way to make them work is to model them after Japanese Hakama pants, but use lighter material.

      Uh, you are aware that until recently, skirts actually had a hem, a removable/replaceable section of cloth at the bottom, specifically meant to touch the ground so a woman’s feet weren’t visible, right?

      There are also entire cultural/religious outfits that to this day still touch the ground that are worn daily.

      Just because its not a common sight where you are doesn’t mean it isn’t a thing any were else.

        Until recently, when escalators became more of a thing, because it’s a stupid fucking design to be dragging your clothes on the ground.

          No, there are still clothing designs that incorporate hems that touch the ground.
