    Some people can be. I say state a simple opinion. (i.e: Whether or not you like it.) If you like it, hey that's great. If not, oh well. But don't bash the kilt into the ground. Some people like them. I personally, would consider wearing the black. Yes, I do find the green to be rather hideous, in my humble opinion. Just leave it at that. A simple opinion.

    I don't see anyone bashing the kilt into the ground but rather pointing out that 'kilt like' garments are not really kilts. How far does the "neo" kilt thing have to go before everyone agrees that it has gone too far?

    I know there are some who would love to put a 3/4 pink fringe all around the bottom of a kilt and still refer to it as kilt and be very offended if anyone spoke unkindly about their decision to customize their "kilt".

    I will stick with the basic kilt and the same design that has endured a few hundered years until someone decided to cash in on the idea and design a new fad for those who want to disrupt and shock society with something out of the norm.

    Chris.
