It is the question of the ages, who is cooler, Pirates or Ninjas?
Really it's a hard call. They both have their good points and drawbacks.
They both have interesting uniforms. Ninjas often wear similar uniforms of black, masks, and toe-socks!
Of course, Pirates get the bling; with multiple earrings and gaudy necklaces, not to mention ruffly shirts, leather boots, hats, and lots of scarves. No two Pirates seem to look alike, it's an "anything goes" attitude with their wardrobe.

They both get to carry weapons. Although both use knives and swords, Ninjas get specialized items like shuriken and nunchucks! Not to mention kick*ss martial arts skills.
Much cooler than a rusty cutlass and a pistol.
Ninjas drink sake and eat tasty foods like sushi, rice, and ramen (some ninjas eat lots of ramen!). Pirates drink rum (lots of rum) and eat hardtack and dried beef. They also have to worry about scurvy.I'm thinking the ninjas win that round.
Of course, both lifestyles are fraught with danger. You don't see too many old Pirates or Ninjas. And if you lose an arm or leg your Ninja career is pretty much over, although it doesn't seem to
stop a Pirate. Score one for the seadogs!
The best part about Pirates is their symbol; the skull and crossbones. Awesome. It looks good on anything (shirts, flags, shower curtains, aprons...)
No matter your preference, I think we can all agree that both Ninjas and Pirates are pretty freakin cool and we've got the merchandise to prove it!
