Most kilted Scots probably have one kilt to do everything, but usually that kilt is kept for smart events. Those of us who have worn kilts for most of their lives might have two or three. One kilt, the newest, for smart events and the others for more informal events.
I, for instance have two kilts in my tartan, both heavyweight cloth, both pleated to the sett, both 8/9 yards. One is about five years old and used mostly for smarter events and the other is probably about 35 years old and is used for everything else including shooting, fishing, walking around the hills and so on. Amazingly, properly made traditional kilts are pretty tough beasts. Hope this helps.
