What is filipino bahag?

Filipino bahag is a traditional wrap-around loincloth worn by men in the Philippines. It is made of cotton or abaca fiber, and is tied around the waist and between the legs. The bahag was historically worn by indigenous tribes in the Philippines as a practical garment for hunting and agricultural work. It was also used as a symbol of masculinity and bravery. Today, the bahag is still worn in cultural festivals and events as a representation of Filipino heritage and identity. However, it is mostly replaced by Western-style clothing in everyday life.
