| | | Why should I wear a kilt?
After searching up, down, left and right, I cannot seem to find any threads/articles about why one may wear a kilt. Thus, I am here asking you all - why do people wear kilts? Is it a trend, a way to pull in fine women ( ) or...
What should I know about wearing kilts? I've only read that Scotsmen, etc, where them to formal occasions.
Give me a quick lesson! |

| | Thanks! But that doesn't tell me why wearing a kilt is viable.  |

They're very comfortable.

That's ... for all people. No clothes - no publicity. |

The answer is easy for me, it is my national attire.

I know Scotsland is where wearing Kilts first originated. I read that much. But do you all wear other clothing? |

Not sure the kilt is right for everyone. Some people might not feel right wearing one, or feel that a traditional kilt is not quite right for heritage reasons.
Some members are not kilt wearers, but enjoy seeing the highland attire, or the contemporary styles, or even just enjoy the site.

Either way it goes, wearing a kilt in public is not an option for me. Maybe to certain events that call for them. | | |
