    I have them request certain tartans to go out with. It is nice to hear all the good positives.

    I had a woman follow me into a store the other day just to ask me about all the pleats in my kilt! She was absolutely amazed when I told her there were nine yards of fabric that went into the making of it. It is an interesting thing, that people are so fascinated that they take time out of their day just to talk to me.

    A kilt is definitely an ice breaker.

    The kilt helps make friends where ever you roam. I don't think their is a person out there that would ever tire of getting positive comments.

    Indeed, the power of the kilt. Last week took a friend on his first kilted outing. He was amazed. By the end of the night we had a lifetime 15% discount at the pub we went to - as long as we wear our kilts. We were also informed that if we drop by on St Patrick's day we will not be waiting in the long line to get in - kilted men get to walk right in!
