Whats with all the kilts lately?

[pbpersson]

they sighted a kilted man while out shopping recently & her husband says, "Geez, these kilts are popping up everywhere!"
.

What did you think of my idea of walking through a different Phoenix shopping mall each Saturday morning? I have eight shopping malls on my list. :-)

I know it sounds strange, but I can get some exercise, go for a walk in the nice air conditioning, and get KILTS out in the public a little more.

I can see it now...
"We were out in a mall on the west side of town two weeks ago and saw a guy in a KILT"
"Really? We were at a shopping mall on the east side this last weekend and saw a guy in a KILT also. They must be getting really popular!"

I agree with Hamish-as a Scot living in London, I'm convinced that thanks to the Act of Union both England and Scotland are better off. OK like all families we have our squabbles-but they are our squabbles. So I would strongly suggest that those who are not British avoid intruding upon such areas-if only on the grounds of good manners.

It seems that a lot of guys in my age group ( 20 - 30 plus ) are recently looking for something funky and different in order to stand out from the crowd, and kilts are high up there at least with some of my mates. Even in Australia where I am there is a kilt wearer seen here and there and it seems to be growing. I just think that when the kilt becomes 'universal' wear and not just for the scottish and scotland descended, then it will become a more staple attire in a guys wardrobe.

Hmmm, I've already had two fleeting drive-by 'everyday' kilt sightings this year - one guy in my part of town in a red tartan kilt and a bloke in a nearby village wearing what looked like a caramel Utilikilt. Both in their 30s or 40s I would guess.

And there's me. I must be sighted occasionally.

And this is northermost Germany, remember. Maybe kilts are gaining popularity here too.
