I just got several friends into wearing kilts at the Highland Games. One already wears his out though not full time. The other wears his kicking about at home, but hasnt made the journey outside with it except for practice and the Games themselves. He probably wont be allowed to now either, as he and his wife went with me to the swap meet yesterday and she saw all the attention I got kilted. Poor guy, he'll have to sneak it like a highschool girl with makeup.

My first time was with a rental. My Wife's daughter worked in a costume shop and said that they had a couple of kilts. Well' I just had to check this out. I tried on a couple until I found one that fit. I wore it twice. Once in the ciity halloween parade,( i was the support unit for my wife and her friends. I did not wear it as a costume) and the the nest morning I wore it to church. At the time I was singing in the choir so very few people saw it. But I was hooked. Never before had I been so comfortable in the robe as I was when wearing the killt. Years later I found one on Ebay. I had even gone back to the costume shop, but they had sold the kilts. I look for any reason to wear mine now. Coompany parties to dinner outings. I just canat wear it to work. I get awfully dirty. and lay on the floor alot. But.....
I'm HOOKED.

Porrick,

Good for you! I'm still a newbie. I've worn my UK mocker out only twice. Both times I got a fairly positive response. I figure St. Patricks Day would good be a good time to bring out my Blackwatch kilt and fly plaid. We are having a small dinner party tonight and I asked my wife is she was ok with me wearing a kilt and she was very positive. I think when I can no longer remember how many times I have worn a kilt out in public I will be no longer be a newbie.
