Training Kilt?

[JackK]

This afternoon I stopped at a small town "beginning of summer" festival to hear a friend's band play, while walking about I heard a lady say "look a leather kilt, how wonderful". I didn't bother to tell her it was actualy a black denim Utilikilt, thought I'd just let her think what she wanted.
On the way home I stopped to get a few bits at the grocery store, a after getting out of the car and straighting out the pleats I was asked by a guy if I was wearing a "training kilt" - not that is a new one for me. Trying as harda as I could to not laugh, I told him that no it was a real kilt, and that it was in fact a Utilikilt. Strange the comments folks come up with when confronted with something new or not to common.
Both of these seem odd to me,as I normally don't even hear comments (or is it I don't pay a mind to them anymore).

I strongly suspect that the guy was trying his best to be a wise a**.

I might have told him yes, it's a training kilt, and it's needed for potty training before wearing the genuine article.

I'm thinking a nice comeback to the "training kilt" might go something like this:

"Yeah it is, when I outgrew my pants I had to go to a training kilt. If the damn thing gets any bigger I'll have to get me a real one!"

Yasih, that is great! Glad I was not drinking for that one.

It could be possible he thought you were a Highland Games athlete and that you were wearing a plain kilt to "train" in so as not to mess up your tartan kilt.
