    Yeah, those sound like Sportkilts, and it's really the perfect venue for them.

    Personally I wear either my Stillwaters when competing or a Utilikilt but I am the rare exception.

    Don't worry about it. The big guys just look scary.

    Really, most everyone that competes will be willing to talk to someone that shows interest. Just don't approach during the middle of an event.

    I just started competing this year. Stone Mtn was my first game I did the clinic Sunday morning, then competed in the clan challenge Sunday afternoon.

    Last weekend I went to Ft. Lauderdale and competed in Division B. The guys were great, they gave me good advice and cheered me on.

    I wear my first kilt which is a SportKilt "Leatherneck" It's light weight and It won't bother me if it gets damaged.

    This is from Stone Mtn



    I am going to Orlando to compete this weekend. Wish me luck

    I showed up with Belt, sporran, sqain dubh, It was my first game or clan challenge.

    No, gloves, weight belt, sun block or boot.
