I don't think pants will ever lose their place in my wardrobe, though I now spend %99 of my time kilted. What time I do spend on the construction site, or doing flooring, or land clearing, is done in jeans. And especially running the sawmill, all those exposed moving parts, do not need to have 8 yards of hard to tear tartan wool combined with close proximity to my lower body. That's a nasty incident just waiting to happen. Another thing I would never do is cruise on a motorcycle in a kilt, that doesn't seem like a wise idea to me.

And sometimes, you just want to wear jeans.
