I have to say, although I don't go kilted as much as the average XMTS member, I do love the attention. On Easter Sunday (for my family's sake) I went with them to a church service, which was followed by a snacks and socializing time. I dressed up my black X-Kilt a bit, with a nice purple dress shirt, and a longish black coat. I couldn't even count the number of times I noticed people looking me up and down, or the many double takes. My mother was also amused by how many people's attention I caught. One older lady walked up to me, put her hand on my arm, and said to me "I wish my son were here, he wears his kilt all the time!" Definitely the best time I've had at a church in many years, although that probably doesn't count as a good reason ;P.
I have my eye on a Utilikilt next, I guess it's true that you can't have just one. (although the more I think about it, I almost think trying for a second X-Kilt, solely by myself this time, might be a better idea before dropping $200 on a Utilikilt.. hmm)
