    Always nice to see..

    So, there I was minding my own business at the bus stop when it happened; two gentlemen walked past in kilts! They did a double-take when they saw me in my kilt and we struck up a conversation. They were both wearing Sport Kilts (Black Watch tartans) but mentioned that they had ordered "full" kilts (from what they described, they meant tanks) from Alexis Malcolm. We talked a bit, I wrote down the web address for these forums, and invited them to surf on over and join. I also mentioned of the quality and prices of the xmarks sponsors.

    Before this I only knew of myself and one other man in Seattle who wore the kilt.. now I know of four men here. Always nice to see people kilted

    Kilt the planet!

    Very cool I hope they stop by here. Seeing other kilt wearers out and about just because must be something.

    Why did he spell it blackwatch?

    Ardchoille sounds like you've got the makings of a kilt night. Imagine showing up in your new Tewkesbury or Newsome!

    I thought I was the only guy near Des Moines to even own one (not really), but last weekend saw another fellow out and about in his kilt. It is good to find others.

    I'd think there would be many in Seattle though.
