Like quite a few others, I've liked the look since I was a kid. It was in the millenium year that I decided to make it a personal project to celebrate family heritage. I bought a full 8yard heavyweight in the "Henderson" o/c. It pretty much stayed in the closet for several years (you know the drill..."dear, its for special occasions only"...) About a year and a half ago, I stumbled onto the bravehearts website, read all of the essays, and started the soft conditioning process. I started actively posting and wearing my kilt about 9 months ago. The kilt population of my closet is currently 3 and I'm working on #4. I'm now seriously thinking about building one for myself after that. With rare exception, its been a fun and positive experience. I'm hooked.:mrgreen:
