    Good Luck! I'm wearing my Gordon tartan to work today too. I'm going to wear it semi-formal since I do deal with the public and I want it to dazzle. I know the women will swoon and the men will raise an eyebrow, however, the one guy who has called it a skirt in the past was a male stripper back in the 70's, so he has no room to talk!! If he asks me what I'm wearing underneath, I'll just say "A G-string I got out of your closet!". Make it a great kilted day and make sure you emphasize that your kilt is not a "costume".
    Cheers! RB

    My supervisor laughed about my asking if a kilt was ok. She thought it was funny that I would ask. I only get a comment now if it's a tartan they have not seen yet. Good luck!

    Agreed. That was one of the major points that i hope to get across today. There is a "costume" contest at work, but I will not be participating in it, because I won't acknowledge that it's a costume. I'm on my way out the door right now, so I'll post something probably tomorrow on how it went. I'm taking my son Trick or Treating right after work.

    Slainte!

    At where I work I have permission from HR to wear a kilt to work on the "Casual Fridays", but pressure from my direct boss, who thinks it is like wearing shorts, keeps me from wearing it. I put it on once on my birthday, and he was not happy at all.

    Good luck today,

    Actually, its a non-issue unless THEY choose to make it one.

    Most cool you have the support of others....better a half dozen than a loner.

    Don't forget to decorate your office/cubicle/work area with pics of famous folks wearing kilts - or just good pics of guys in kilts. You can find them on many kiltmaker's websites or just google up kilts.

    Let us know how it goes.

    Thumbs up

    Good luck Ayin!! I have my first kilt on today as well. It seems to be a little more aceptable on this day for the first time.

    I'm a little late on this one, but I do wish you well.

    Can't wait to hear the comments when you get home this evening. I suspect they'll be quite positive, as they usually are.
