Buying a Kilt :D

[Jock Scot]

I have worn the kilt for the best part of 70 years and it is quite normal for ONE well made kilt to do everything. Weddings, funerals, dances, balls, meet the Queen, BBQ's, business meetings, School functions, walk in the country,go to church, etc. The trick is; the kilt is the foundation, and it is everything else like, jackets, shirts, shoes, sporrans, hose, ties that get changed, to dress yourself "up", or "down".

Two things to remember, the well made kilt is really too expensive to wear to change the oil on the car for example, so a cheapo kilt for those kind of jobs is not a bad idea. The other thing is that our body changes as we grow older and like all clothing the kilt will "shrink" so you will be extremely lucky if you get away with one kilt for your entire life! We Scots do try not to buy too many though!

You have a nice sum of money to get you well on the way in your kilt wearing life and it would not be wise for me to advise on where you spent it as I don't know the price of anything in your part of the world. So, do your research, read ,look, ask questions, take your time and then do it all again until you have it clear in your mind what you want----------THEN BUY THE VERY BEST YOU CAN AFFORD.
