    First Day in a Kilt... It's a whole new world!

    So this is it, my first day in a kilt... I feels wonderful, my 8 yard wool masterpiece... One problem my wife is allergic to wool, so that makes things a little touchy.

    I'm doing this as a test to see if I can pull it off before investing in another, non-wool kilt and how it will work in a south florida environment.

    It helps that it is halloween so there is a little less pressure

    All in all I'm enjoying myself!

    Cheers,
    David

    Welcome to the world of freedom! Wool isn't necessarily a bad choice for comfort in hot places, but 8 yards of it might be a little warm, yep. You'll find lots of options, from all-cotton to poly-cotton to all-synthetic.

    Kilt on!

    Going kilted is always a plus, after some weekends I dread putting pants back on to go to work. Recommend you look at USA Kilts causual and semi-trad kilts, the poly-vicose works well in warm weather. Wear mine alot in summer up here in Michigan.

    Aye, welcome to the society and don't reveal the secret of what's under the kilt.
