Wizard Robes: Why?

[Ravens_cry]

So, more like a real adventurer would?

Maybe, still ugly though. Back to wizards robes, if we mean something like a monks habit I can see that been doable in the feild, but the long, massive sleeves, catch on thorns, get dragged in the mud, trip over your own feet, kind we see in your stereotypical wizard?
Not practical at all. Neither is the thousand belt, goggles that do nothings dungeon punk iron kingdoms wear either.
