    You mean something like a Tibetan monk wearing a clergy kilt?

    But there it is.

    They do, however, occasionally hang with Howie Nicholsby.

    Wow... I hadn't actually expected to see it! Cool. Coincidentally, I started reading "The Saffron Robe" earlier today...
    The spirit of the Declaration of Arbroath (6 April 1320) abides today, defiantly resisting any tyranny that would disarm, disperse and despoil proud people of just morals, determined to keep the means of protecting their families and way of life close at hand.

    Sorry I don't do a lot of photos but my Kilted attire is the same in the church or outside of it unless I'm in a collared shirt or covered by a robe. Otherwise, it's the same kilt(s ), sweaters, shirt, hose and shoes. As mentioned, there are several "clergy" kilts but I stick with my family tartans when working.

    If you do a search on clergy related threads you'll find opinions on whether a skean dhu is appropriate. I always wear mine so as stated above, nothing changes for me. I am always kilted around St. Paddy's day to counter some of the "blarney" from a couple of our Irish-American members - and they love it.
