Belted Plaid as Casual Attire?

[turpin]

The kilt is not cumbersome if it fitts you and is well made!


So you are saying that you only wear the kilt once or twice a year? - No, no - you can't be saying that!

All of my kilts are tartan - (or to use your term -Belted plaid) - and that is what I wear. I am going on my second year without wearing pants! And I have been wearing the kilt as standard attire for close to 14 years.

I just remember the last time that I had on a pair of pants, as being close to two years ago - 16 September 2005, to be exact.

Casual, dressy, formal - the kilt fits all needs. I tend to, pretty much always, wear hose, flashes, belt and sporran, except for strenuous or really dirty work.

The kilt is comfortable, easy to wear, care for and does not get weird looks. I have been in many situations and many different countries, and everybody recognizes the kilt for what it is.

Was that your question?

Am I confused, or are you, Mr. James?

Are you saying you have only worn the great kilt for the last two years? That's what the thread is about; wearing the great kilt as a casual day-wear garment, as opposed to the tailored, sewn to measure kilt we are all so familiar with. If you only wear the Feileidh Mor, and do it every day, the guid oan ye, but wow, is all I can ay. I'd never be ale to get dressed in time for work.
