I voted traditional, but it's purely a personal bias. What attracted me to kilts in the first place was tradition; the idea of wearing a garment which my ancestors had worn, in a fabric pattern which symbolises my family's heritage over the past couple of hundred years, in a form which they would recognise, and of a quality that meant a bit of saving up and sacrifice. For me, a traditional kilt has a romance about it which a modern MUG doesn't, but that's purely personal.
I think the fact that we're even able to have this discussion speaks volumes about the kilt as a living, breathing tradition. The fact that it's able to evolve into the Utilikilt and other incarnations, alongside its traditional form, is something to celebrate.
