Back to Back Compliments
Wearing kilts full time I'm used to the routine comments. Worked a 12 hour shift today, tired, stopped at the supermarket to grab dinner. I've been in my Fraser Casual from USA Kilts all day.
Guy in his 30s, dressed like a construction worker stops me in the deli section and says, "I wish I could wear one." Just smiled and said, "You can, its a free country." He didn't stay to chat.
Then, a few minutes later, in the check out line an elderly lady said, "If I may be so bold, are you visiting from Scotland?" Explained that I was a local and had been here five years and wearing kilts full time for nearly a year. She was local too but said she'd missed me around town until now. Then she told me her Scottish heritage and her trip to Scotland. Very plesant.
And while I was shopping two former Navajo clients stopped me to say hello. Being used to me kilted it wasn't an issue for them.
A nice way to wrap up a long day.
Kilts is therapeutic!
