    That's definitely true, Jimmy I'm sure once he gets more accessories he'll have more occasions to wear it. Sometimes he doesn't feel like dressing up that much and wants to buy some hiking boots for a more casual look (as well as hiking in the kilt). Hopefully we'll be able to get some more items for him so he can have a little variety for the occasion.

    I just hope we do it before he loses too much more weight! He's been doing great with the weightloss, but the kilt is starting to get a little loose on him. Once it's too big for him, he may not buy another until he's closer to his goal weight. Ack!

    I had to go kiltless for about 6 months, one time, for the same reason. Weight loss can sometimes put a crimp in one's kilt wearing.

    What kind of kilt does your husband have? He might think of having it altered, but instructing the kiltmaker to size it a couple/few inches too small in the waist. That way, it'll be good incentive to keep the weight loss coming, but he'll also be able to keep kilted, by using the extra holes in the straps.

    Desperate times...

    It's a Stillwater Standard. I've mentioned to him we might be able to adjust it a little or find someone who can do it for him where it's not too noticeable. Here's hoping!

    Yes any night is a good night for the kilt (riding motocycles and painting the house excluded!)
