    I'm quite fair-skinned but it's hard to tell once I strap on the kilt and hose - the kneecaps are the only things that show.

    A warm welcome to the forum from London.

    They'll say Wow! You're wearing a kilt!

    Last time I had the opportunity to compare degree of knee-brownness with 3 fellow kilties, (we were all four sitting in a garden in Sussex at the time) the full-time wearers certainly didn't obviously have it over the occasional and infrequent wearers in terms of knee colour. Just find some nice kilt hose and enjoy the feel of the sun and breeze on your knees.

    Again this us up to you. Try going regimental before the day. If you find it comfortable, do it. If you don't, wear some undergarments. It's no big deal.

    She's right - you probably do look great in it. Go out somewhere local (do a run for groceries?) with your supportive wife by your side, and you'll soon get over your shyness. Don't be surprised when strangers strike up conversations with you, though.

    best regards
