I have been wondering for a while now on the purpose of the kilt pin. I have been led to believe that it is proper to only put it on the top part of the apron, not through two layers.

Why is this? I would think that the kilt pin would be there to keep the apron down. If this is not the case, why?

What is the historic reason for the kilt pin? Is it just decoration? Curiosity, more then anything.


Thanks,

George
