Kilts are over rated!!!!

[Raphael]

We have another severe wind storm last night in Vancouver and I went out with friends in a kilt. Needless to say, I had to walk with my hands on my kilts to keep the wind from lifting it. Next time, I am just going to head out in a pair of jeans!!!


Although I could have worn my leather or an over coat......

If you have this problem, even in the stiffest of breezes or wind, your kilt is not made right and/or is of too light of fabric.

The sporran keeps the kilt down in front and the sewn-down fell keeps it down in back.

Sure, your kilt may get blown about, but the boys will stay hidden...

Quite so; but you do have the option of wearing jeans—that's what it means to have a mature attitude to wearing a kilt.

I agree, there are times the kilt is not the best choice. However since I do occasionally need to head out kilted in bad weather I find an inverness does a very nice job.

In that kind of wind, just stay home with a cup of tea!

Sister, is there room for a third.

I'm with you, Sister. Tea & a slice of toast & Apricot jam.

Only if it's Scottish plain bread.

You know this may be sort-of sadly true. I am a full time kilter, I wear the kilt everyday regardless of the weather.

But I haven't yet thrown away my favorite couple pair of well broken-in jeans, even though I haven't worn them in years. Those jeans are too much like part of the family to be just pitched. I don't wear them anymore, but I can't just throw them out either. I did donate several pairs of other pants, but those jeans?

The same is true for my Hawaiian shirts. But I finally ordered and have a solid black kilt, and I may experiment with that kilt and a hawaiian shirt? The jury is stil out.

Well, I wouldn't wear a SWK Thrifty in a hurricane.

Personally, I have found that in high wind, I prefer to have my trench coat or duster on. I don't really know if I would have that problem or not!

HAHAHAHAHA!!!! That is by far the line of the day! I laugh.

In a hurricane,.......something leather.

Well, I would, but I would not be out in it. When the Navy thinks it is bad enough to move aircraft carriers away, I am not going outside.

Sorry, I didn't see your post, Bear. Welcome back, you've been missed here.
