Hey guys.

I think the question I have been asked most since I bought my first kilt 2 weeks ago is "why wear a kilt?".
ith:
It's obviously not to be expected from a black guy in london with dreadlocks (but obviously I never let that stop me). My answer when asked the question has been to reply "why NOT wear a kilt". But it did make me wonder, what made you decide to finally get kilted? Is it a family heritage thing? fashion? conversation ice-breaker? just a way to show off your legs? Everyone has a reason and I think it'd be fun to hear everyones reasons.

As for me, my reasons are two-fold: 1) kilts are cool. 2) after seeing Samuel L Jackson wear a kilt in The 51st State, it made me realise that black guys can carry the look off.
