Personally, I generally prefer to wear my non-tailored kilt when I can.
At least the 16th century ones, and maybe even the 17th century ones, are you sure they're actually kilts? Kilts didn't appear until the middle or end of the 16th to begin with. Just wondering from a historian's standpoint.


I won't disagree with the "Live and let live" idea, but I still don't like them. The whole TFCK sort of turns me off towards TFCK. I like the work I've seen from Geoffrey (Taylor), and some of the TFCK stuff I like, esp. the pinstripe kilt. But other than that, it just isn't what I'm looking for.
