Akuperma- What I assume takah’s question is, is that if Moshe Rabeinu didn’t wear it, why is there significance to it? Obviously there is such thing as styles, the current style are pants and shoes with laces as you so eloquently put it. Maybe a button down shirt or even a polo shirt. But the bekeshe was not Moshe Rabeinu’s style nor our current style. It was the style in Europe some hundreds of years ago (by both Jews and non-Jews). Why was that particular Goyish style chosen as the uniform of the Jews (for those Jews that wear it) for all time?
