    Mike,

    Congrats, great way to "break the ice"; sure that going out in public will be much easier, now.

    BTW, what kilt and tartan, any pics?

    The tartan is Moran. I took a couple of photos, now I need to figure out how to load them up.

    Myself and my friend Dan. He's the one who gave me the push to finally buy one. Mine is the Moran tartan.

    Nice kilt! My first public outing was a party in my home as well. If you can make it past your friends, being in public is much easier - I don't care what strangers think. Welcome to the club!

    Very nicely done Mike,
    well coordinated - extra points for matching the green lei (can someone tell me when they became associated with St Patricks day???) to the tartan!!
    ITS A KILT, G** D*** IT!

    Nice pictures, and that is a beautiful kilt. I think you will find wearing a kilt out in public is really not difficult. People will stare, but you get used to it. You will even get compliments which usually leads to some great conversations with strangers who would otherwise not even notice you.

    You wear it well! Don't worry about going "public," you look great!

    And is that a Neokilt your friend Dan is wearing?

    It gets easer to wear the Kilt out in public Just stay away from subway vents.

    Nice Picture.
