It is quite true that you should always use the right tool for the job. I think that the right clothing for the job in hand is also a requirement. I am just not convinced that a utility kilt is the right clothing for that kind of work.
Thanks for your input Chas. I don't do any heavy or dangerous work now, I normally wear shorts and t shirt for what I do.
