Aha! I caught you looking lassie! biggrin.gif

Seriously now, as some of you may have gathered, I have a particular interest in promoting the kilt for men as a casual garment and not just for Clan Gatherings, Ceilidhs and Costume parties.

I actually found this site from www.xmarksthescot.com which is a similar forum, but centred around kilts.

So my question is this, how many here wear a kilt on a regular basis?

I don't right now, but I'd like to. A Sport Kilt is on my list of things to get. I think I'd start out wearing it around the house, and maybe to celtic events, and once i was a bit more comfortable, I'd start wearing it on a regular basis.

Well you look very fine in your kilt, the pony looks great too!

I'm into tartans more than plain kilts but I understand Utilikilts are very popular and practical.

I have three sport kilts, wear two of them quite a bit. The third one, it feels like a different material and just doesn't seem to want to lay right. At any rate, Friday is casual day at the office so I tend to show up in a kilt, t-shirt and flip-flops. I'll get my tenure bonus this month and most of that will go toward a true kilt. Somewhere hidden on my desk is are my ideas on tartans but as I'm looking around it, I can't seem to find it. I feel like Dory...

I have a grand kilt I wear to all the highland events(of course), but I find myself wearing it more and more just here and there. I wore it golfing a couple of weeks ago(lost my darned kilt pin again too). I'm looking to get a another kilt just for banging around in. As much as I love my grand kilt, sometimes I'm too lazy to fold all the pleats, etc. But it is awesome to wear. cool.gif

Only the one I rented for the wedding. But after that experience, I plan on buying one as soon as possible, and no doubt will find plenty of occasion to wear it. king.gif

Tassiecelt,

We usually tell people that question about Wolfhounds will be answered freely. Horse/pony jokes will cost you 5$. lol.gif

I wear my kilt sometimes to classes at my university and sometimes just around town...I see a kilt as just another article of clothing. I mean I have my dress tartant (sewn and pre-pleated), and then I have my pipers kilt, I have a couple bolts of fabric I fold the traditional way, and I now have on order a kilt made of carhart fabric....to me talking about wearing kilts is just like what pair of jeans I have on today.

Brian I have 6 kilts and a couple more on order, tartans are Morrison (on my mother's side), McKenzie, Gunn, Black Watch and Stewart Hunting.

Madadh No offense I hope with the pony joke (do you take visa?) they are beautiful dogs.


celticwoodsman I consider kilts much more interesting than a pair of jeans, but kilts are, when all is said and done, another garment, but a very comfortable one at that.

There's a dear little plant that grows in our Isle
Twas St . Patrick himself, sure, that set it;
And the sun of his labour with pleasure did smile,
And with dew from his eye often wet it.
It grows through the bog, through the brake, through the
Mireland, and they call it the dear little shamrock of Ireland.
