Tripp Green Plaid Kilt (UGLY)

[arrogcow]

No, using that logic, people should buy clothes that fit. Stillwater makes 24 inch kilts. If they do not fit you, don't buy them! It would be ridiculous to buy clothes that don't fit.

But you said it is not a kilt because it is too long. It obvioulsy isn't too long on some people.

Exactly. I used the logic presented to make my statement.

The Tripp kilt is bound to be the ideal length for somebody.

Even hiked up an inch above my navel it still hits me mid knee, so it's too long. Now who's calling my kilt a skirt?

Since this is a punk kilt, just cut it to the correct length with a pair scissor

would it be wrong of me to suggest that even when we think we're not kilt snobs...sometimes we really are?

Some people can be. I say state a simple opinion. (i.e: Whether or not you like it.) If you like it, hey that's great. If not, oh well. But don't bash the kilt into the ground. Some people like them. I personally, would consider wearing the black. Yes, I do find the green to be rather hideous, in my humble opinion. Just leave it at that. A simple opinion.

I don't see anyone bashing the kilt into the ground but rather pointing out that 'kilt like' garments are not really kilts. How far does the "neo" kilt thing have to go before everyone agrees that it has gone too far?

I know there are some who would love to put a 3/4 pink fringe all around the bottom of a kilt and still refer to it as kilt and be very offended if anyone spoke unkindly about their decision to customize their "kilt".

I will stick with the basic kilt and the same design that has endured a few hundered years until someone decided to cash in on the idea and design a new fad for those who want to disrupt and shock society with something out of the norm.

With out evolutions and evolvements though, the kilt would die out. It has already evolved considerably, going from a wrapped blanket to a finely tailored garment. From there, it has become what we see today. It is bound to change again.

Both these pictures have appeared separately on different threads.

The knife pleat camo has an overlapping front apron and is in my opinion definitely a kilt.

The box pleat camo has pleats which continue all round (no it isn't being worn back to front!) and no overlapping apron. It is a kilt like garment to the extent that it is pleated and knee length.
