I tend to walk prouder. The feeling that I actually wears something that means something to me and has a historical aspect is great. I think of it like when I put my Obi on my Gi for karate class. You tie the belt propperly and wear it with pride. That is for honoring the others and yourself. You actually honor your ancestors when wearing your kilt with pride.

Except for the feeling I do feel that the kilt is a bit higher up than normal jeans. That gives me a buch better support in my back, and makes it more natural to stand up straight.
