    Sorry I must disagree on two grounds:-

    I do not like to see The Saltire represented in such a manner.

    It looks too much like 'I'm a stooge-kick me.'

    Possibly my bias is linked to seeing it being worn by some very drunk chaps-maybe a stag night in Prague last year. In fact their behaviour was such that I went back to my apartment and changed into trousers so as not to be asociated with them in any way. Not that I knew them.

    Do a search for "slatire kilt" on this forum and you'll find tons of comments about them. I think a memebr or two own one.

    I have to agree with James. I would never wear any standard below the waist. On the chest or on a sleeve at the shoulder but never in an area that I will sit on. It's disrespectful. It's a matter of honor.

    It is common practice to wear clothes with the american flag on it, how is this any different? It seems like a non-issue, merely something for the Old Guard to get upset about.

    US Flag code

    The Us flag code is clear on this issue for display/ wearing of the U.S.Flag.
    most of the flag hooplah post 9-11 Was a clear violation of the code.
    These links may provide some guidance. As far as other countries flags it still is Insulting to see the flag as clothing. type the U.S. Flag code and you will get lots of information.
