Yes, I've noticed that as well, though less so here than on some other kilt/skirt forums. However the recent kilt do's and dont's thread gave some of the guys in the pics a lot of ribbing for wearing their kilts too long. As a long time occasional wearer of traditional Scottish kilts I'm now enjoying my new found fashion freedom of wearing casual kilts for everyday wear. Yes my casual kilts are non-tartan, non-wool and have fewer pleats and are longer than my traditional kilts as they have a hemline just below the knee instead of a selvedge at mid knee. I prefer the longer length when the fabric is so light weight. Also it is more modest when sitting or bending. Why should the fashion police dictate that a man's unbifurcated garment must end at mid knee and no lower?
