I certainly wouldn't mind if they became more popular, and who cares about trendy? the know-nothings will move on to the next trend soon enough, and those who like to be comfortable will continue to wear what we wear, right?

Boy am I torn on this. I just started wearing the Kilt in the last month. I did so initially as part of my hertiage and now because of comfort. Either that makes me a trendsetter (ugh) or an early adopter (even worse). For now, I say COMFORTABLE.

I would not be happy at all if they become "trendy". I don't follow trends.
Al, you are a leader, not a follower!!!
Derek, I too have mixed feelings about this. I am very happy to be 'different' and a non-conformist which places me in the 'let's keep kilts exclusive' camp. However, I also feel so sorry for all those poor unfortunates out there who are still suffering trouser tyranny, that I want to educate, convert and bring them all into my world. That would mean kilts becoming mainstream!
Maybe I'll just keep quiet - or is it too late for that?!!!

My thoughts?
The more the better And I'll bet the lassies would be happier too.
Perhaps mine would finally accept it.

Ham, even your silence speaks volumes, so when you come out with a philosophy statement like that,,,yes, I think it's much to late to keep quiet! Very well said.

I personally don't care if it gets popular. Although I don't want to see the decline of quality because of it. I don't want to buy kilt that is going to fall apart within a few washes.

Kilts will always be fashionable, even when they aren't the current fashion.

I'd like kilts to be more widely worn. Those who wear them well will still stand out from the crowd.

I hope to God it gets popular! If it went mainstream I could wear one to work... I could go kilted full time! But as it stands, popular "Texas Opinion" doesn't leave room for kilts, even for a guy who edits video full time... and I am relegated to every where except work for the kilt. Heck, I went to the Cowboys game yesterday kilted and got nothing but compliments... except of course from the co-workers I told before the game. "You're going to watch an NFL game live... in a kilt? Whatever.
I say bring on popular and trendy... The tards that change trends more often than they change socks will move on, leaving behind acceptance of the kilt by most everyone... even if they do think it's "Soooo last year!"
