    So what do these young people think about kilts and its mark on fashion... present or future?

    ... I feel the world has a few more people who will be more understanding when they see someone in a kilt.
    Do you get the impression that they really understand the kilt as a mans garment with a proud history and not just a bit of goth-wear?


    Sounds like a fun way to spend a few hours and get paid for it!

    I Felt that these students really got the idea that the kilt not only has a pround history but also a new andexciting future. I asked if any of them could find a way the kilt could be inproved on or made for the future so we'll see what theses mindso come up with . Blu the only goth comment I got was about wearing a black kilt.Mcpelle I was kilted all day I had on my Campbell of Cawdor(my wifes tartan).

    Outstanding, all the way around!

    Changing minds is a one at a time thing, and when you can get a positive start on a large group, all the better!

    What a great example you must have been to all those in attendance, educating and telling of the greatness of Kilts. I am sure that you excited a few gents to become Kilted.

    Great job!!!!

    Mac,
    I would liked to have been in attendance myself, I would have thoroughly enjoyed the information shared by you.
