    I have one pair of white jeans (bought for a costume and not worn since last year), one pair of bib-overalls (not worn for three years), one pair of carhart jeans (not worn since Halloween, I was a Cowboy!), and one pair of dress trousers (not worn in six years). Like James, I am kilted full time and have been for over six years.

    I wear jeans for certain activities such as motorcycling or heavy duty cleaning etc.

    Pants are something one has to wear as part of the choir uniform for concerts but it's a long time since I last wore pants at anything but such concerts.c

    for me it all depends on the day and my mood. I have 3 kilts and 7 pairs of pants. kilt wearing everyday gets people (my mother) angry. she just doesn't like how it makes other people take about me behind me back. and I just say, it because they aren't man enough to say it to my face.

    I wear pants on the weekends mostly, since that's when I go home and my mom isn't exactly enthused about my taking up the kilt.

    I own two kilts right now. An AK and a SWK. I wear the kilt every now and again now, however, as I obtain more kilts, I will wear them more often. I just don't have enough to keep the wardrobe "fresh" right now. It would be like wearing the same pair of pants day in and day out.

    I have three pants hanging in the closet(the rest are uniforms), but I am in the Milatary and its hard to sell the idea of kilts sometimes.

    I wear kilts to formal occasions, and when I get excuses to (sporting events, highland games, etc), but that's still not very often. For the amount of time I wear kilts, I probably have more than I need. (2 AK 1 UK 1SWK standard, 2 wool traditional, and some SWK cheapies that i bought for the heck of it with the SWK standard, but which I've never worn)

    I primarily wear pants, but I think the kilt is a snazy piece of clothing which has tradition and significance, and i say more power to you if you chose to wear them all the time.

    I'm in pretty much the same boat, I wear the kilt on special occasions mainly. Work does not let us wear even shorts, and while around construction equipment and climbing in and out of trenches, testing concrete and such I think that jeans or carhartts make a much better choice in my line of work. My wife (and parents) like my kilt wearing, so no problem there, just don't wear it as often as some on this site do.

    I Wear pants more than my kilt just because at the time I only have one.
    Plus for things like work and climbing vertical surfaces(which is something I do often) A kilt isn't necessarily the garment of choice.
    Plus I do sometimes like wearing a good pair of jeans.
