    THis is a kilt from Kiltstore. It is really well made, but when we did the measurements, we (wife and I both) misunderstood the measurements, so I wound up with my own mini-kilt. I gave it to my daughter.



    The length is marginal here, but if I wore it anywhere near my normal kilt waist....well you get the idea.

    That's a little shorter than my BK was, it really felt uncomfortable when sitting down (my knees ain't purty).

    Well, I agree with others that some of this is, to each his own - though probably only in certain circumstances! Minis or half minis may be all right for some men in public, probably the young, hot males of the species and for women. Not for me.

    Like everyone here has said, a kilt is a kilt and a mans garment, a mini is a kilt skirt and looks great on women. My wife has one (a hiphugger mini in Gordon and is about to get a camo mini hiphugger soon.

    Don't use the [url] tags.

    I totally agree mini-kilts are for ladies only.

    Thanks Grant,
    that by the way is my newest kilt in my family tartan "Black Stuart" from CCK of course. Fits like a glove, I love wearing that kilt. That Gordon fits like a glove too!!.
    Grant we'll see you in Fergus in a month.

    Is this what we're talking about?
    Just an inch or two above the knee can destroy a whole traditional look. But this high up....whatever next? (Another couple of inches off and that question's almost answered.)

    Glad I could be of service! Actually, AlanH is the one to thank-he made that mini.

    I agree, we've sort of hijacked this thread, and I apologize for that-it just seemed like it was starting to get a little heated.

    There are plenty of men out there that would look grand in a mini kilt. And plenty that would NOT. Just like there are plenty of women in the same boats. But we should not tell people what they whould wear, based on our own ideas of what is right for ourselves.

    I do think there is a common decency issue to consider. I don't think there are many main stream societies that would appreciate men in kilts/skirts/whatever that are so short as to be revealing genitalia in public. Other than that, if the legs/upper thighs don't look good, I'll just not look at them.

    Be well,
