Kilting and Loving it
I just got into the world of kilt wearing this summer, Love it!...my wife and I made a utilty style kilt....turned lots of heads at work and in the shopping centers.....the women at work love it...a couple of the guys asked where I got it? , is it comfortable?...do I get taunted/teased?....I told them...I'm dam comfortable  and very proud to be wearing my kilt (now have 4 of varied stlyes)...I had a funny experience at our local beach this summer...as I was walking to the beach with my 18 month old daughter, I took of my shirt as we started in the water, I noticed 2 younger men looking thinking I was going to give a show....look of shock when they realized i was a guy....they made a comment or 2 ..told them don't knock it til u tried it.... 
I'm working on kilts for our boys 17 and 5 and, my father asked if I would make him one after seeing how comfortable I looked in mine....hmmm might be a market here in Saint John NB

And I'm sorry to say, in all cases, it's terminal, no hope of recovery. ;-)

Ahah!! another kilt addict. You will be assimilated, resistance is futile :grin:
It's good to hear such stories of first time kilt wearers and the joy and freedom they experience.
This forum turned me into a full time kilt wearer and ruined my life, beware.
(no, I love it really, it just cost me thousands)
Keep the stories coming, love to read them.

Your rate of kilt acquisition is impressive. Well done.
