    My wife got me a kilt for Christmas

    I am a new member. Member Alan H pointed me your way.

    My wife got me a Utilikilt for Christmas. I have been wearing it increasingly ever since. It complements my lifestyle greatly.

    Based on the looks that I get and the turning of heads, there's much more awareness that needs to be created about kilts.

    I live in the San Francisco Bay Area and very much appreciate the forum.

    Thanks.

    Welcome from another Bay Area UK wearer. Make sure Alan tells you about our monthly get together in Belmont, the final Friday of the month. Details are posted in the Kilt Night subforum.

    Best regards,

    Jake

    PS. If your wife bought you a kilt you're a lucky man!
