Welcome to the fray, from Colorado Springs!

And to echo the sentiment of many here, You don't need to be Scottish to wear a Kilt. I've been able to trace my ancestry back to Germany, Poland, and Yorkshire, but I still proudly wear a Kilt.

A warm welcome from the hightides of northern Norway!

I'll be in York a fortnight in September, so there will be at least one kiltie not too far off from Bradford...

from Edinburgh. As the welcome screen says you don't need to be Scottish just daft about kilt-wearing.

From The Great Stae of Missouri, And I agree with checking out Stillwater Kilts I got my first kilt from them and enjoy wearing it

Hi from another non-Scottish kiltist. Maybe you do have to have a little nerve to wear one south of the border, but why not? I wish there were more of us.
I wear eBay kilts and they're a cheap way to get started - see how you take to it before splashing out on anything serious.

form a very wet Hampshire UK, hope your not flooded out at the moment.

Have you bought anything from "My Tartan Shop" on Ebay

I would like to wish you a warm "Sandlapper" welcome from South Carolina in the US of A. Wear the kilt with pride! Another kilt you might want to consider is USAK, which you will find in the XMTS banners. Nothing like a kilt made just for you. Just check on the duties that may be due to shipment to the UK.
