21st Century Ankle-Length Kilts

[Kiltman]

I have to agree with the "non-traditionalists" mainly because traditionally there really isn't any sort of set length on the kilt. There are 16th and 17th century woodcuts and drawings that show several scotsmen wearing their kilts at all different lengths, including down to the ankles. I'd say it's all a matter of preference.

Personally, I generally prefer to wear my non-tailored kilt when I can.

Would love to see some of the woodcuts. Can you give references to them either here or in a private email.

I know that Edinburgh tree that Howie's model Atta is leaning against. It's near the University going up from The Meadows by the main road. I've had to hang around it often waiting for my daughter to come out of classes.

um.......no thanks. I'll pass on this style.

The kilt atta is wearing reminds me a tad of something a samurai might wear.

To each his own though. If its your bag...then do it.
