Curse You Kilt Pin! - Preventing Kilt Pin Damage

[OC Richard]

I have found a way that...helps to prevent holes, fraying, tears caused by kilt pins.

I have found a very effective way to prevent these things... leave my kilt pin in a cabinet

I'm a form-follows-function sort of person, and I've tried to pare my Highland outfit of as many unnecessary do-dads as possible.

The only pin I wear is the cap-badge on my Glengarry, because I feel the Glengarry looks strange without it. Of course a similar case could be made for a kilt looking odd or incomplete without a kilt pin. But I have tradition on my side- Glengarries have nearly always been worn with cap-badges, but kilt pins only came into widespread vogue in the 20th century and most military kilts have always lacked them.
