    Why I wear the kilt

    I wear the kilt because of the way it makes me feel: confident, approachable, and in-charge. I walk a little taller, smile a little warmer, and feel like a king when I wear my kilt. It's a very positive experience.

    Simply stated, I enjoy wearing the kilt.
    I am proud of my Scottish heritage, but I don’t have a kilt in a Scottish tartan – some day I hope to get one.
    And of course there is the freedom of going regimental!
    With that goes a certain responsibility, but it’s a manageable responsibility.
    And I enjoy the reaction it arouses, whether positive or negative. The positive response is heart-warming, and I can ignore the negative or even enjoy it at times.
    Regards,
    Mike

    I too simply enjoy wearing a kilt. I have no Scottish heritage. Except perhaps some 12 yr old Highland Park.
