Sharing Cautions

Please explain, "tuck your apron".

Well when you go to sit once you sweep the pleats in the back you also may need to adjust the front of the kilt also known as the apron, if you watch Hamish's video on it you will see what I mean better than I could explain it, just make sure the apron comes down a wee bit between the knees so as to not expose yourself to those sitting across from you.

The worst thats happened to me, is that my fiancee was fooling around one day whilst I was kilted. She had her camera phone with her, stuck it under the kilt and snapped a pic. That in its selfs not so bad, and didn't think much about it at the time. however, girls for some reason have a habit I guess of looking at each others cell phone pictures. Before she finally erased the pic her sister, her 3 best friends and a couple other girls learned the answer to "the question". I guess if she doesn't mind showing off what I got, I shouldn't have a problem with it either

A couple years back on a flatwater raft trip down Glen Canyon of the Colorado River. I'd been wading in the river at the stop to see Anasazi petroglyphs and my Survival II Utilikilt got wet along the hemline.

Made sense to me to stand in the bow of the raft and allow the wind in the canyon to dry the kilt.

It was a raft full of other AA members attending our local annual AA roundup. Just as one grizzled old guy was getting ready to take a scenic photo the wind whipped the back of my kilt up and answered "the question."

He couldn't resist showing everyone and anyone at the round up the digital "proof" that I was a true Scotsman.

I had no intention of mooning the raft...just the wind - which does unusual things down in the canyon - was feeling frisky.

Beware of groups of girls at the Auld Dubliner in Tucson w/ cameras, hiking steep trails with a date who is slower than you, sitting down front in the grass at concerts, overreaching for a billiards shot. and there is absolutely no modest way to exit a Corvette in a kilt. I think that is my top five.

My wife drives a BMW Z3... yes, it's a challenge. Actually, the car door is your friend! Perhaps just swing it halfway open? then turn, tuck, stand.

Yeah, but an F150 ain't much easier.

But all I have is a 4wd Chev and a vette.

Daughters ride backed his car onto a culvert wall and asked for assistance. I said call a tow truck, but the wife seemed to think I could pull him free with my truck, so I crawled under the off side of the car to see what it was resting on. No one on that side of the car when I went under, several red faced spectators when I came back out.

I got had by the dreaded gust of wind at the Saline Games this year.. Flipped the pleats all the way up!! The sporran did it's job...

A few weeks ago I was wearing a nice, light 11oz kilt for summer and rushed down the stairs of my building to take my dog out. With the wind coming up and me going down the kilt got lifted alllllll the way up.
Luckily, no one was around to see, but it reminded me to always wear a heavy sporran with a light kilt.

It was on the caribbean cruise last year. The night before my accident I shared the table with a yuongish married couple. The husband was engaged in conversation so the wife leaned over and asked my quietly about what's under the kilt.
I tried the standard "Do you REALLY want to know?" and some other answers but she didn't relent. So I simply said "briefs".

After the accident the USCG came on the ship to take me to Miami, and as they lifted me over to their guerny the kilt must've flipped up, because the 'wife' leaned down and said
"Thank you for showing me what's under the kilt"
