I've snowshoes in a kilt, and had a great time. The temps were around zero degrees Fahrenheit, so the snow was nice and crisp. I'd just rented some snowshoes, and had only one difficulty. The bindings weren't hinged, but were instead attached to a strap. I'm not sure if I'm explaining this right. Because they weren't hinged (swinging freely) the shoes snapped back with every step, flinging a little bit of icy snow up at the backs of my knees. This hung on and built up on the back pleats of my kilt, so I had rough ice particles rubbing the backs of my knees with every step. If I'd had better snowshoes this wouldn't have been a problem.
