Is this good or bad .. your thoughts please

It will be a good thing, but we will see a lot of cheap, low-quality knock-offs, worn badly, hit the market, with inaccurate tartan reproduction and lots of MacTablecloths. It will be incumbent on those in the know to represent the kilt well.

Yep, what he said.

Maybe in a few years there will be a trouser forum:eek: :eek: :eek: :ban:

I dont think kilt wearing will ever become mainstream, Thank goodness

[Kid Cossack]

Would that be for the masochists, Freelander?

It'd be nice if it were more commonplace to wear a kilt. But other than that I don't particularly care.

I, personally, do not want to see kilts/cilts become mainstream.

Personally, I like to be different (it's my hippy heritage - I still wear what's left of my hair long). So, for me, the longer and slower the popularity rise of kilts the better.

Pragmatically, if kilts become trendy, there will be a brief burst of people wearing crap cilts (made from the crap cilt clan tartan - from the Table Isles). And then those oh, so trendy fluffy heads, will abandon the cilts as suits their traditions.

Some of the fluffy heads will see the light and join us, "we few, we happy few, we band of brothers*".

Bad if it became the "IN" thing to wear...

It is a chance to have more options in garments for the male.

I think it would be super if kilts became more commonplace. Its a good sign that the mother of your pupil was so approving of the kilt; only a generation ago a kilted music teacher would have been considered oddball.
