    Can I wear a kilt with a moon boot

    Looking for help here, I broke my leg a few weeks ago, later this week, the plaster cast comes off and I will be given a moon boot to wear for the next few weeks.
    Now I'm off on a cruise at the end of the month where there is four formal nights over the two weeks. I always wear my kilt on these formal nights but can any member advise me whether I can be kilted with a moon boot on and not look ridiculous
    I would be grateful for your advice here.

    I think all dress codes accept medical devices.

    Pants is only a present tense verb here. I once panted, but it's all cool now.

    Of course you can. You know it is not a usual choice, but its not a choice that works for any form of attire. So grin and bear it and have a great time.

    I think it would be preferable with such a device strapped to your leg. I hope you have a full recovery and a wonderful time on the cruise.

    I agree , it would be far more comfortable than trousers especially in hot weather

    As stated before. medical devices don't hinder the wearing of your kilt. You may have to bow out of a few dances. Heal quickly.
