You have to see this,
This video is filled with a boat load of kilt do's and kilt don'ts (like the sporran around the neck.)

Enjoy!
"A veteran, whether active duty, retired, national guard or reserve, is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to "The United States of America", for an amount of "up to and including my life." That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it." anon

An entertaining video and some smart outfits, but as you warned, there are a few dont's there as well, including at least one instance of pleats to the front, and the guy near the end wearing the huge pipe band sporran with the red mini-kilt.

Ok, that's what I THOUGHT I saw. It didn't seem quite 180 d off. But, there were pleats where they shouldn't be.
It was a pretty cool video. I could have done without the one newscaster's awful "Scottish accent."

On the find a kilt page, X-Marks is listed as a tartan info source. Cool.

This kind of upset me. I know that it raises a lot of awareness and public exposure, but the entire time they were doing it in kind of a joke kind of way. Not all of them, mind you, but some of them (like the sporran around the neck and the pleats to the side...and the mini kilt) seemed a bit disrespectful. I'm glad they were helping charity, but if you're going to wear a kilt, first of all wear a real kilt (Mr. Mini-Kilt...), and secondly wear it properly and with pride.

Did you see how cool those guys thought it was that they could get away with having a knife?

If you look on the Get a Kilt links, X-Marks is listed as an informational site How 'bout 'dat!
and at the bottom there's a locater that says this place is in Atlanta
http://www.atlantakilts.com/
I'll be keeping an eye on this for April 5th this year. That would be a great chance for me to get the company in kilts and pawn it off for Charity. The owner is very big into helping charities and having fun, this would give him the best of both worlds.

The also have the House of Celts, the store who's owner I am working closely with, as the ONLY kilt shop in Oklahoma!
looks like a great site, and another excuse to wear the kilt to work ( properly, that is. It is a Kilt, mind you..not a kid's toy)

I would have thought that TV stations would have kept them from making a joke of the kilt, so that they wouldn't offend people.
