    The Pontic costume has a very archaic vibe, the Epirote long vest is also common in Albania.

    Yes we practically exchanged folk costumes with all peoples of ex-Byzantine Empire.

    I just noticed that the Pontic and Cretan costumes have a common characteristic that all others don't, they wear some kind of trousers under their skirts. Anyone know anything about it?
