My new kilt...with a touch of Korpiklaani (Modern)

[Nick the DSM]

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

You need this jacket highlighted on another thread. I see your mom and dad are both on the forum. Do we need to put pressure on them for a birthday present?

... or do I just see kilt stuff everywhere I know that this clearly isn't traditional anyway, so I've posted it here in the modern section of the forum.

I found a jacket listed on eBay as "EMO BLACK MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE MILITARY PARADE JACKET" and I swear it would look better with a kilt than with p@nts. It is apparently based on the stage gear of a band called My Chemical Romance.

It is short waisted, has a military look, and even has a sporran cutaway. In pics of guys modelling it, when the jacket fits in the body it is way too short for pants. When the jacket reaches down to the pants waist, it is way too big in the body and the arms!

What do you think?

I have to agree with that assessment, particularly where your age group is concerned.

Actually, I think that in this instance artificer has proven himself a master of understatement.

Your parents may hate me for it, but my position on this is firm.

Thanks Slacker. Cuz I just don't get enough MCR around my house what with him and mom both being their No. 1 fans...

That's right... Stoke the fire....

Keep giving him ammo.....

I agree with artificer and Dale Seago. The jacket would be a good look for you.

Because he really needs MORE reassurance that it would look "way totally awesome with a kilt" on him....



Thanks guys. Somehow I knew I could always count on you. "But dad, how can these guys be crackpots? Remember how you told me that these guys really know what they are talking about and that I should listen to them when it comes to kilt wear? You said they know LOTS more about fashion and stuff than YOU do"

And just when I was about to start steering him towards tweeds.... <shaking head>

Can't say I'm a fan of most of those bands as I'm more of a heavy metaller, but guid on ya!
