    That is sort of a backhanded recommendation. And I should be concerned about their advice why?

    I'm sure they stuck it in more as a joke than anything else, but it's nice to know that the kilt has gained a reputation for its comfort even among non-kilties. Comfort has become one of my top reasons for wearing the kilt. And heck, people who joke about it now may be more apt to try it out for themselves sometime down the road.

    An almost uniformly smarmy article if I ever saw one.

    I was never very fond of smarm......

    Yeah, I was hesitant to post the link since I agree with pretty much nothing in the article. I like those driving shoes though, I've never seen those before.

    Well yes, but you're not "allowed" to wear socks with them.

    That's part of what intrigues me about them. I'll be moving to California this summer, and I know it's going to be HOT.

    I don't know about those driving shoes. Personally, the only driving shoes I wear are these. Then again, I take my driving a bit more seriously than most.

    I wish I could take my driving that seriously, but I don't think I'm cut out for it since every time I rev the engine past 3k I wonder how much time I took off the life of the car. Yeah, sometimes I take life too seriously.
