how to wear modern kilts

[wildrover]

I do not see modern 'casual' kilts as undermining the 'majestic history' of the kilt ... I see casual kilts as reclaiming the spirit of a kilt. Affordable and practical.

I agree. Every time I pass the UK tent, I'm tempted...it'd be great to have one for the garage, except leather would be a better choice for what I do (almost exclusively involves metal).

I wear my tank and my 'nice outfit' for nice events and I wear my Utilikilt for tearing apart bikes and dealing with leaking oil and whatever. I wear my acrylic kilts for bumming around in.

I'm in the process of ordering a PV kilt to fill the big gap in the middle.

You'd be amazed at the durability of your 16x8 . The only place I don't wear mine is the garage...IMHO that's a place exclusively for Carharrts...but then my garage is a place of molten metal and axle grease.

To get back the topic of the OP: "Fashion Designers" do not take into consideration people wearing their creations to do any real work in.

I find it particularly ironic that many of those pairs of fashion jeans look as though they've been worked in .

All I can say is Carharrts. Like my 16x8, you'll have to pry them out of my cold, dead hands.
