Any suggestions for wearing a kilt in public for the first time?

[estimaa]

It was definitely weird at first, like trying to ice skate, but after the first few "outings" you learn to ignore the curious stares or remarks, and, perhaps because of the confidence, you get compliments, which is nice.

So my suggestion is to just do it, get on the ice, take your lumps, and soon it'll be reflexive.

.... but frankly, I don't care.

Too busy being comfortable to bother with potential negative nerberts.

Ice Skating in Russia is already "initiation", then you see all the beautiful things people are doing like 2nd nature...

Kilts fall into the same category, especially once you get used to walking around through snow drifts at -20C.
