The last weeks of 2011 were very cold here in South Florida - seriously :-) -and in a few classes we worked with our jackets on... Great for manipulation of your opponents 'form' and many other 'applications'.
Please share your feedback!

very good to see the options u have against someone with a jacket. And also an eye opener as to the disadvantages of certain jackets.(hoodies or jackets with draw strings).

Yeah I remember winters in Detroit and it is harder to get into a fight with a jacket on because of mobility. But it does protect you a little bit in regards to a straight on punch to the stomach. Also you can throw the other guy around pretty easy when you grab on to his jacket. This is a pretty sweet post especially for somebody used to warmer climates.

Yes, you have to be aware of what do you wearing, I don't mean it in a fashion sense, but how your own clothing can be used against you in a fight, just like Brandon pointed out the hoodies and strings, also tie or a baseball hat can be used to manipulate movement or simply blind you.

Better not get into a fight at Haulover Beach, otherwise you will have nothing to control your attacker with. :P

Seriously, this class was quite revealing of some options that one may have, yet not think of unless trained to employ them. Especially for those who wish to limit the damage they inflict (e.g., against a teenager with a knife, as opposed to a hardened terrorist with a shotgun), using an opponent's own clothes to slow him down or restrain his movement can give one a decisive advantage without having to hurt him too badly. Also, it reduces the need to rely on other restraint devices that may not be immediately available--his clothes are practically always immediately available.

Unless, of course, you actually ARE at Haulover Beach. But at least it'll be harder for him to conceal a weapon there.
