    Purchasing First Kilt - Couple of Questions

    This friday, I'll be ordering my first kilt. I've decided to go with Alphakilts' Edinburgh Kilt in Olive Drab Green. Now, I have a couple questions. Restrooms. How do people navigate urinals and what not? Actually, I guess it's only one question.

    The obscure we see eventually. The completely obvious, it seems, takes longer.

    I tend to prefer stalls..

    I tend to prefer stalls just to keep any sort of messy accident from happening. I'm moderately vertically challenged, and a lot of urinals come up far enough that I'm always worried about hitting the rim of the urinal with the kilt.

    So, I pretty much always go for the stall.

    Be patient and take care, that's the best advice. I have avoided any unpleasantries so far by following that advice. I always take extra care in assuring that the wool is well contained before letting 'er rip!

    Stalls are prefereable, but not required.

    Let me suggest you practice at home before venturing out.
