You don't knot sarong, you wrap it around you and then fold the top edge down a couple of times. It's much more secure and comfortable that way. The sarongs I have are in more "manly" colours. Black/blue, brown/tan, dark purple/ochre - those have floral and tribal motifs. Then I have a couple that are brown with multicoloured lizards on them. Generally I wear them with short sleeved button up shirts. I've never ever gotten a negative comment or a weird look (not that I notice looks much). On contrary, I've had a few compliments and a couple of guys saying "I'd walk around in a sarong all the time but my wife won't let me."
Super cool, thanks for writing this up! I'm going to look out for a cool sarong then.
That lizard sarong sounds awesome!
It's even cooler than you imagine. The lizards are geckos about 40 cm long. I wish I knew how to insert a photo in reply.
