    What the traditional longtime kilt wearer here tends to do is wear the newer kilt to smarter events and keep their worn 40 year old kilt-------assuming that they can still fit in it------ for things like mowing the lawn but rarely anything more boisterous than that. Just so you know, I have only ever seen three, perhaps four, utility style kilts in Scotland in some four score years, so, a rare sight here.
    Thanks fir the feedback!

    Utilikilts are not the mainstream here in America either, but neither are any kilts for that matter...

    They exist but are rare. I do my own thing though and the utility kilts seem to fit my needs for moderate physical labor.

    I have gotten to regard the fashion sense of others with less regard as it pertains to what I am wearing...
