Why do you wear a watch when practicing martial arts? They could cause injury when blocking/grappling with others. Also, have you ever seen pictures in Black Belt magazine of Gary Alexander, and noticed what a dweeb he looks like when wearing gold jewelry/watch and combat boots in a karate gi?

Jedi Knife,
Maybe our ideas on martial arts training are different. I'm not talking about the karate gi and dojo training. I'm talking about the knife-fighting, street combatives, firearms training. I wear regular clothes because that is what I'll be wearing if something bad happens (and because, your are right, wearing a gi with combat boots does look funny).
Not putting down the dojo training (used to do it a lot and miss the structured environment sometimes), but for the sake of brevity, I put it all in one term.
