which is exactly why I'm asking "just wondering if anyone has any experience of actually using a "day plaid" (as in wearing wrapped around themselves), while walking through the forest/bush? I would guess that having the long fancy tassels would tend to get caught on branches, etc. a LOT! Wouldn't a "practical" version have a shorter 'frayed edge"?" .. or, are you implying that wearing a kilt, "in the bush" is not practical?
