Dressed To Kilt

[Tim Walker]

I find it interesting that fencing has three different weapons and could be thought of as three different sports in one. (I took a class in foil fencing many years ago...never did try the others).

BTW, I think that the only garment that will coax men out of "trousers tyranny" is the kilt. The traditional kilt has a legitamacy...lent, I believe, also to "contemporary and untraditional" variants.

I can't imagine the average male trying on some of the silly creations I have seen online-he would be making a fool of himself.

I agree that the kilt is what is needed to bring a man out of his pants for the first time. Once having taken that step though I think some of the other styles can be considered.

Being kilted for over a year now I've run into a few situations where a kilt is okay, but something else (not pants!) might be even better.

For example I am thinking of getting a Macabi riverskirt for sailing, because the material is superfast drying supplex nylon and it can be gathered at the knees into a kind of 'shorts'. Shorts with no crotch however, just material gathered at the knees. Still comfortable, dries fast, and even has pockets.

I'm also thinking about getting a sarong or two for taking to the beach. The lighter weight is going to be cooler and at the beach its most appropriate.
