No kilt snobs out here in the canyonlands of Arizona. This is jean country for the panted, due to all the blowing dust and sand. A whole different world than the city.

I started out with Utilikilts and SportKilts, then added mostly camo kilts from individual kiltmakers like Jeff and Steve. Added some AmeriKilts for a fancier look....but found I just don't like sporrans much.

Once I started to work went to UK mockers, workman's and survivals. Wear them most of the time. No matter how grubby they get I can just toss them in the wash. I love that "Scottish jeans" line because that's what they're like to me.

Of course you can't hang around the kilt world without hankering for a tartan kilt. My first were SportKilts...the old gathered kind...decided to spring for a hand sewn traditional in my clan tartan and once that arrived I was hooked. Now have four more and then sort of backfilled into USAKilts that let me have both the tartan and the washability.

Don't know how many other guys there are on this board that live in the boonies rather than the city. But think we do need and wear contemporary kilts more.
