Curiosity impels me to ask how many here have tattoos that they show off when kilted. I have not been wearing a kilt long but have changed things up with shirts and noticed different looks/reactions when showing ink and then not. Multiple tattoos still seem to attract more glances than normal and I wear my family/heritage related tattoos proudly when in short sleeve shirts and kilt.
Anyone have tattoos here and if so, what about heritage related ink?
I have two Welsh dragons (Ddraig goch) one Scottish thistle in a Celtic wrap and one black lion rampant.
Now granted, the larger thistle and ddraig are on my calves and cover up with hose but when running or in running shoes, they are visible. Both of my arms are almost completely covered in ink so people see them.
A kilted and inked runner sure gets attention!!! And so far nobody had messed with me or shot negative statements my way about the kilt or the ink.
