However, he taught me a great deal about the culture, history, and traditions... at 15, he procured for me my first kilt- which I was brash enough to wear to a public school in the mid 80s...
I'm not a daily kilt wearer, my current duties do not allow for it. However, the kilts (particularly in light synthetic tartans or canvas utility) see use several times a month as workout or work around the farm wear.....
