I'm thinking of getting a casual kilt for weekend wear. Church, dinners out, summer happenings. My old friend Kase wore one to the company Xmas party last year and totally pulled it off.
So what's the MFP gang's verdict? Interesting kooky fun - or "Mark of a *kitten*/attention *kitten*"?
I do have a pretty decent pair of sticks, if that makes any diff.
Be honest, I can take it.
my dad wears his family kilt at special events0 -
I say go for it. Be proud of your heritage and you'll meet a lot of new people that way too. Don't worry about what all the guys say. I see a few guys every year wearing them and not for any reason but they wanted too.0

Kilts! Traditional tartan or modern utility kilt... doesn't matter. The only thing that matter is if you've got the legs, and the length is right. Right in the middle of the kneecap. If it's too long or too short... you're a guy in a skirt.

If you can claim any kind if Scottish heritage and wear a properly tailored kilt in your clan tartan, it's not only cool, it's as sexy as hell.
Under any other circumstances, you're just a man in a skirt.

Looking at your profile picture and the pic of the kilt you posted i think you could definelty get away with it0

I am Scottish living on the West Coast of Scotland so it has to be a yes!! Nothing better than a man in a kilt, but..... you have to have the legs to carry it off!!! Love the casual kilt look best, think that is MUCH sexier than the dressier look - think blokes walking around at Highland Games (the local games in my neck of the woods on the West Coast of Scotland I mean)0

Even here (Scotland) it tends to be only special occasions and sporting events! Probably half of the men I know have one, but they don't get worn out very often (if I had something that expensive and 'specialist' to clean, i'd probably not wear it much either
).

The bigger question is: What are you going to wear underneath your kilt??0

Kilts are cool but I have no idea when it is exceptable to wear one.
1 fashion tip: dont wear a white one after Labor Day.0 -
Kind of depends on what socks you pick out to wear with it...no? :flowerforyou:
If you take the plunge, post us a photo please. :bigsmile:0 -
I need a photo of you in the kilt to make a decision.... Is that you in your profile pic? Then I'd say, yes.
BUT I have never seen a man in a kilt except in parades. I think they are awesome.
OTOH, I can't imagine a guy flipping up his kilt for a "quickie".... ummm, OK TMI...0 -
The only time it is considered acceptable is if you are Scottish, other than that it is considered a no-no.0

I think kilts are awesome! Traditional and the above ^^ However if your not of heritage, I'd wear the above kilt out for fun like concerts, certain bars, chillin with friends. A lot of guys from the celtic and or hardcore music scene wear kilts. It can be pretty sexy and manly I say0 -

My mother's family name also claims Scotch-Irish without naming an immigrant. We're all balding, lots of body hair, built like dump trucks, and many are fair with freckles and reddish blonde hair. Interesting stuff. If we're not scotch or irish we certainly should've been.0 -
