    Right , not the wearing of the Kilt but the sporran , glengarry and pose. My Mum was a Robertson, lovely tartan. Your kilt, striking!I take it your in a pipe band so obviously proud, but you look uncomfortable to me. I expect sporran strap higher , try . Cheers. P.S. try hands on front of kilt ,like a cowboy on his belt, best wishes

    Well... That kind of sums it. I should stop trying to play mediator.

    Indeed, I usually wear the chain ones higher, but ordered this leather strap too small. I'm not a professional model. Not good in front of cameras. Plus, as I mentioned, it is a wee tighter than I'm used to. It's probably more just not liking cameras though. I am indeed uncomfortable, but proud of the kilt.

    I suppose I've been in one pipe band or another for so long that the glengarry has grown on me more than any civvies will understand. So I'm gonna have to respectfully disagree with nearly everyone on that front, - I love 'em! Though I want a balmoral too. I would agree glens are perhaps more appropriate "in uniform".

    Sorry about the rush to judgment. It was constructive criticism, after all.
