Yeah, most of us don't understand why everyone isnt' wearing these.

oh, as for the 12 steps program, most people wind up repeating it repeatedly...some with a fine single malt to help.

Yeah, I just got home from church (work). The most frequent question I got was "Why?". And when I tried to tell them how comfortable it was and how everyone should wear one their eyes just sort of glazed over. I only had one person ask what was on underneath and I told him that only the wife and myself know the answer to that question. Next person that asks gets "Socks and Shoes" for an answer.

Did get a couple of people who recognized it last night at the Rocky Horror Picture Show. It kind a went like this:

Teen #1 (to Teen #2): See man, you're not the only one that dressed up like a chick

Teen #2: Ummm... that's a kilt. Guys wear those.

Teen #3: Heck yeah, that's a Utilikilt! Those things are awesome!

Like you Captain I just got a kilt (Utilikilt Original in tan). Pants don't feel the same anymore do they?

Welcome aboard, Captain!

I did the same thing the first time I wore my Utilikilt - left my shirt-tail hanging out. I've tucked 'em in ever since. Just an example of the friendly, practical advice & support you can expect to get in this forum from your kilted clansmen here.

When it comes to kilt advice, just remember what that lil' ol' band from Texas sang -
"I Heard It On The X!"
