    I concur with Rocky. I would like to see, in addition to more detailed information on the traditional Tank, information on the evolution of the kilt.

    I believe that the effort of the "new" kilt makers and the casual/sports kilt is bringing the kilt back.

    Agree. Hamish is a wonderful ambassador for the kilt. He is great in front of a camera. He is confident. He speaks well. Dresses well. Knows as much about kilt wearing as anyone on the planet. What more needs to be said?

    Bloopers!

    Time travel in a Kilt?
    Yes! When someone makes a movie and includes Kilts or a Kilt the possibility exists that the Kilts may not yet have been present in that time. Or,
    the tartan used was not yet commissioned. Or,
    the fashion shown (certain pleating or sewing technique) wasn't yet evolved in Kilt wearing.

    Somebody think of more movie Kilt bloopers!
    Go, have fun, don't work at, make it fun! Kilt them, for they know not, what they wear. Where am I now?

    I'm glad you are participating in the website. I enjoyed the piece on kilts and several others.

    A word to Mac users - if you have the Quicktime plug-in for WMV (Windows Media files), you can see the video by changing the viewer setting to that file type. I could only get it to work using Camino, not Safari, and with the WM setting. For some reason, Flash and Real Player would not work for me in either browser.

    I've noticed most of this discussion is about the history, the wearin of the kilt, etc. What about how the wearers are percieved, and the some of the "trials and tribulations" of wearin. For example the comments made, and the all time favorite, peekers.

    Oy, Scotlandontv person:

    you are welcome to use my slightly grainy video of me skiing in a kilt for your website if you like. Perhaps videos of folks using kilts in unusual settings would also be an interesting topic (skiing, carpentry, construction, rock climbing etc.).

    Here's my video link:
