I have worn the kilt since I was about 3 years old ( I'm 48 now ). I have never worn the kilt "full time" but since an early age I have worn it for special occasions, family events, parties, Highland games, First Footing, hiking, and "just because." My sons have followed suit. They are 17 and almost 16. I am sure they are kilted 6 to 10 times per year.
