Ah Jock, but we may not know she's the right one until after a few dances.

While I don't personally love the skull sporran, I'm also not 16 anymore, either- It's a cool look FWIW.

The one suggestion I'd make is to get some taller, chunkier socks to scrunch down. Carhart makes some wonderful padded sole socks that, if pulled up, come to mid-calf. When scrunched down you get a nice look.

either of these are GREAT when you're on your feet all day (or night)

Keep rockin' the kilt, and it WILL pay out for you.

I had not heard of Korpiklaani, but since reading this post, I have been listening to them on my phone (Pandora) at work. Now a couple of my co-workers are fans as well. Thanks.

Sweet, another metalhead. I'm usually wearing a Slayer, Megadeth, Iron Maiden, etc shirt when kilted.

I have to second that!

You look pretty good, and more importantly, very comfortable.

Watch your six though...the tweed sneaks up on you when you're not paying attention! Over the course of a few short months I went from not even liking the look of tweed jackets to owning three of the darn things! One isn't even a kilt jacket, just so I can get my tweed fix when NOT kilted.

Yeah, I totally get that. I wear Korpiklaani, All Time Low, My Chemical Romance, Hey Monday, AC/DC, and whatever shirts I find at Hot Topic with my kilts.

Usually I wear My Chemical Romance shirts since they are my favorite band and the fact I cant get enough of their merchandise.

I love it!

Agreed, dad.

Very true.

I'll have to take it further and third it!

Great look man! As for me, all I can think about is how many different things I would get hung up on!
