I'm sorry but by the best Historical evidence we have some one skilled as a blacksmith would probably not have worn The Kilt.

The Kilt, as we know it today, was only developed in the late 1700's, about the time of the American Revolution. According to evidence only the nobility and ruling class wore it. And then only as court wear.

As soon as the Kilt was adopted as a part of a Military uniform It was found only there.

There is no evidence the average person could or would have worn it.

The older form of Kilt, what today we call the Great Kilt or Belted Plaid was also probably not worn by the average Scotsman. It was probably only worn by the poorest, most rural people of the far NW mountains. What today we would liken to hillbillies.

So what started as "Poor Man's Clothing" is later romanticized, changed, and adopted by the nobility because they thought anything "Older and simpler" was more "Noble and purer". Then later the Kilt was seen through these romanticized eyes as being useful as recruiting propaganda.

I don't expect everyone to believe me on this, because there is just so much myth and romance wrapped up around everything Scottish, but according to the best research we have, it is true.
