    I wouldn't wear a kilt that I can dress up in to do carpentry or some of the outdoor activies I enjoy that include corrosive desert dust blowing at hurricane force.

    At the same time, a UK Original or Mocker with a nice shirt and shoes can be worn anywhere a guy would wear Dockers with the same shirt and shoes.

    Modern kilts like the Utilikilts have a blue-collar working man's sensibility. Maybe having been designed by a motorcycle mechanic, the style comes from their functionality. Come to think of it, that's what the UK twisted-F symbol means: "Form Follows Function".

    Utilikilts may not be as dressy as Tartan Kilts, but for Hiking, Shopping and Crusing the Urban Jungles, they are excellent. I can carry all my junk in the cargo pockets without making my sporran looks like a small vollyball.
