Well, did a little math. Of those that responded with an actual number, 48 response's, 654 kilts, for an average 13.625 kilts per respondee  . I am now going to inform my wife that I am below average and need to get more kilts!

i have two kilts, one is a Lockhart modern tank, made by Matt Newsome, and the other is Graham of Mentieth, which I'm trying to sell. I'm also trying to scrounge up the funding for a 4-yard Carolina box, and then will need one in a tartan I'm designing, and I think that will be enough.
I know when to walk away.

Here I am, Cherub!
Well, to throw a possible spanner into the proverbial works: in spite of what my avatar states**, I actually have 95 assorted kilts (and absolutely no t------s .............. I have not worn them for 9 years and 9 months now).
My inventory is far too varied and numerous to list here, but most can be seen in the Photo Gallery I have prepared for my up-coming very first website. Here's a link to the Gallery: www.kiltedhamish.net The Kilt Kollection part is pretty much complete but the rest is 'under construction', as are other parts of the website : the thumbnail images will enlarge with a description when clicked upon, and you can move forward or back through the Kollection by clicking on the right or left-hand side of each enlarged image.
** In the past the Mods used to update this automatically, but recent kilt acquisitions seem to have passed them by!! !-)
Take care,
Ham.

In truth the admins used to change the count for you Ham. I am positive that the mods are trying to sort it out and get the proper count up there for you. 
As for the original question in this thread.....
I am down to 3. I had more, but never wore them so they went onto people that will wear them. I was once one of the "buy as many as I can" crowd, but now I prefer to simply own what I need as I don't wear a kilt as often as some. I have a Scottish made handsewn 16 oz worsted wool kilt, a Scottish made machine sewn 13oz worsted wool kilt, and a BC made poly-viscose kilt for spilling beer and dirt on. There are dozens of tartans I would love to add, but I am married and I honestly don't have that much cash or closet space
