Thanks for the positive comments! My son loves hearing them too.

After further review, It does close the opposite of a kilt, which makes it a kilted skirt I guess. Ooops! It looked right to me, but I can't tie a tie on someone else either. I took a look at it I think we can modify it a little and make it salvidgable. This is also why the fringe and kilt pin are wrong. It is 100% wool.

I appreciate the ideas about the sgian don'ts. Everyone needs a writing utensil right? I'll have to play around with this.

Again thanks for all of the comments guys especially from his kilted peers

If it is velcro and easy to switch go for it. I posted to Johns Pics don't worry because 96 % of the people don't know, 4 % don't care and the 1 % who might say something to a kid about it are Idiots. :rolleyes:

I humbly suggest that you not get overly concerned about which side your son's kilt closes - important thing is that he looks GREAT in it. Very masculine.

In Scotland there is frequently flexibility on the 'which side does it close' rule for children - few families can afford to keep buying progressively larger full kilts as a boy grows rapidly.

As a child, in Scotland, I frequently saw boys wearing modified kilted skirts. Adding a sporan, and a belt, makes it unambigiously male, regardless of the direction it wraps.

KP.

Even though I noticed that there was something odd about the kilt, the boy looks great in it. Don't break your neck to appease the idiots who would react negatively.

Even though I asked the question earlier in the thread, it was not meant derogatory, just curious. I also don't think that it really matters, for anyone of any age. Glad he enjoys wearing it and is proud of his kilt.

What a great looking young man, Glad to hear he had a positive experience at school. I can understand your fears about the other kids, but then you never know.
