Unkilted in Lanzarote
Just returned from 2 weeks in Lanzarote in the Canary Islands, the weather was really great, going in to the high seventies at times.
One afternoon while lying in the sun enjoying its heat, I got thinking about some of the X-Markers who stay in constantly warm climes and they seem to wear the kilt a lot. I know that these kilts are surely lightweight and not a traditional heavy kilt but I wondered if I would want to wear a kilt of any description in very warm temperatures.
I have seen the pictures of many X-Markers in their kilts from many warm countries throughout the world and they all look quite cool and smart in kilts but are shorts not much more preferable in this type of temperature.
Of course, coming from a cold country with sometimes cold summers, I can appreciate how warm and comfortable a kilt can be in cold weather despite non-kilt wearers thinking that I am freezing in my kilt.
Certainly it would be great to wear the kilt in all types of weather so can some members from these warm countries tell me of their experiences kilted in hot weather
