    I just wanted to point out the irony of a nudist saying something was too revealing.

    I hear what you're saying, though. Thin material can show the imprint of things we don't necessarily want shown in every social situation. This isn't just a problem with kilts, either. Wearing boxer shorts with thin dress trousers often causes similar imprinting.

    If you're dead-set against undergarments, I think the backing strip inside the inner apron is probably the easiest fix. Anything heavy enough or stiff enough to reduce imprinting to just a generic bulge is about as good as you're going to get.

    Touche', hehe.

    The past couple years I have been in a work environment that I can wear jeans, so going commando doesn't seem to be any different than wearing boxers, for the most part and I therefore have gotten out of the habbit of wearing underwear period. Your suggestion is one of the things I have considered, thank you for the reinforcement. My Black Elcommando kilt is more concealing than the lighter green. Kilts draw attention and the solid lighter colors on an otherwise flat featureless apron, do seem to emphasize the slightest irregularity. My other Cargo style kilts are more busy than the Elkommando's and no one's eyes are directed to any single point of interest.

    Thanks again for the input & the irony.

    I can see where you might want to be a little more low profile in an office setting. If you double over a well laundered and softened bandana and baste it on the inside of the kilt it will be comfortable, absorbent, removable, and concealing. I've done this to my good wool kilt for cleanliness and to avoid chaffing.
    You don't get to judge me by your standards. I have to judge me by mine.

    Very good idea.
    Thanks again
