    Untrue! Wearing it at home is an excellent and comfortable option.

    I don't have any black tie events to go to, so no Prince Charlie, just daywear. With all the restrictions due to coronavirus, not much to do, but 2 times recently I wore my kilt while walking my dog (2 mile walks). I got a lot of positive comments at a safe 6 ft distance.

    At least now when people back away when they meet a person in a kilt you can blame it on the virus:^)

    I live in NYC too, (West Village) I just wear mine when I feel like it. I teach part time and my students get a real kick out of it, especially the international ones. Also up in CT, perfect for walks and hikes. Go for it and enjoy, the UES (aka High-rise CT) is a good location to get started!

    I am also a teacher who wears a kilt; do your students have a nick-name for you?

    I know of two: The Kilted Wonder and Kilt Man. There may be others but these are the two I’m aware of.
