With time more diverse kilt wearing

[ccga3359]

No.

I don't think a proper kilt is that casual a garment.

I have disagree with the kilt snob here . A kilt with all the trappings is something that it had to evolve into. A 'proper' kilt would be everyday wear with no rules regarding this or that. The Scotsman of yesteryear didn't go hunting for supper in full PC regalia. I'm sure if a particular item had no function he wouldn't wear it. Dress up or dress down if it makes live easier (as I'm sure it does) then all the power to you.

Speaking as a total newbie, I have to agree. Having wanted a kilt since I was a little boy, I finally got a SWK Nightstalker and Nightstalker sporran and feel totally at ease in them. I've started wearing them around with a casual black shirt and don't think I've ever worn as comfortable an outfit in my life. I also tend to carry a black canvas 'man bag' but still wear my sporran. My wife's family (my own are back in England) tell me that I act as though I've been wearing a kilt all of my life. If I were to wear one formally - which I'm all for doing should the situation arise - I'd doubtless feel as stiff as I would if wearing a dinner suit.

In the meantime, I'm now trying to spread the word locally that my kilt is more comfortable than any pair of jeans/pants I've ever owned.
