Andy, you look fine in your photo but, the problem with wearing a regular overcoat and a kilt is that it really only looks acceptable from the front - and with the coat left undone and open. From the back it might appear to everyone else that, as has been suggested, you are a flasher, or that you have forgotten to put your t------s on, - either way leaving yourself open to ribald comments. If an overcoat has to be left undone, I actually do not see much point in wearing it!

In all my 57+ years of kilt wearing here in the United Kingdom, I have never found it cold enough to wear anything other than a good, warm bomber jacket, maybe with a scarf and gloves, and I am now of an age when the blood has definitely started to thin!

Take care,
Ham.
