I wore my USAK sem-trad in Malcolm tartan. I had a meeting with the management staff of a neighboring community. I mentioned I was wearing the kilt as my take off of casual Fridays to Kilted Fridays. One them with the last name of McCook said I have to get one of those! Hope he does.

Kilted only after work...went to pick up a bottle of Highland Park 12yr old, got a couple of positive comments.

Today it's the turn of my Flecktarn kilt with kangaroo sporran. This was my first kilt made by Paul Henry.

You are the man! I look forward to Fridays, always, and currently approaching my 90th day at a new employer.
I have practiced Kilt Friday for the last 5 years and have continued the tradition, despite some low level snickering and a bit of mixed reaction. Now I make it a Thursday Night (LA time) tradition of checking your posts. Thanks for the motivation and spirit. I always remember the first Friday blazing the trail and the boost your post provided.

KILT ON!

I was showing one of the ladies at work the two kilts I have made. I was not wearing them but had them in a bag. She suggested I just start wearing them on Fridays. I don't think anyone will care as they all know I wear kilts. I was going to do that today but I ended up working from home. In the past I have worn the kilt to work on a couple of special occasions. So for this week kilted Friday at work will have to wait until next Friday.

This is my first photographic contribution to Kilted Friday, taken before breakfast yesterday. The kilt is my Robertson Hunting, knife-pleated to the sett, by Hector Russell last year from Marton Mills' JR123 h/w material; claret HOC Lewis hose; dirk from the armorer who sells out of Geoffrey (Tailor) up the Royal Mile; and Hamilton College l/s T-shirt. I know it's already Saturday here, but it is still Friday somewhere in the world.

The vessel A65, registered in Queensland, is named Ruby Charlotte, and I believe she has her own Facebook page. She is a two-masted gaff-rigged ketch, originally built in Brisbane as a pearl lugger to operate in Torres Strait about 60 years ago. She was rescued from oblivion by Jon and Liz, and has been entered to race in the non-spinnaker division of the Hamilton Island Race Week in the Whitsunday group of islands up the Queensland coast south of Townsville and east of Proserpine. My Good Lady, known to XMTS as Grizz, has been great mates with Liz since they did nurses training decades ago.

I have dressed appropriately to Kilted Fridays more and more frequently in the last few months, but I know the fate of such claims without imagery to substantiate them. Grizz took my new avatar image on a Friday in April, I recall: Cameron of Erracht kilt from Scotweb's clearance table; Villeneuve jacket by M'Lady Chrystal from a bamboo velour material I sent her, and brass buttons from Rhode Island, and she also made the jabot and cuffs.

Using portrait oriented images and keeping them the right way up needs a deeper magic than I have picked up so far, for which my apologies.

Boat's aright!

Nicely done, F:Clef! Looking grand Ian!

No one should feel they have to post pic to tell us about a Kilted Friday Adventure. Although we do like seeing them.

For me I wore my XMTS tartan USAK Casual, today.
