    Guess that's the evolution and versatility of the kilt!
    All though there are a large number of posts, on the forum, about kilts and the military, I never viewed it in this fashion.

    kilts & the military...

    ...it's strange that an article of clothing once associated with a military uniform, fighting and killing can now be regarded as a garment that brings peaceful thoughts (as it does for me).
    Well, the original purpose of the Independent Highland Companies, which became the Black Watch, was to keep the peace in the Highlands...

    Cheers,

    Who's tacky enough to do something like that?

    GMan actually got me inspired with this, by sharing that dream (not the green tights dream) on kiltmen forum and I came up with a few ideas...after reading about cafepress I might turn it into a shirt...

    Looking good in your kilt, Alan. The shirt and boots look great. Are those boots any particular make?
