Hi to everybody, I am brand new here having just discovered the site this evening. My name is Alan and I am originally from Dundee, Scotland but have been in the US for a long time. I had my first kilt around 9 years old, my second (a MacPherson) for my wedding to my first wife. And have wanted to get back to the kilt all my life; that is to wear it as a daily garment. This I am now doing for I am in a city in Washington State where it's extremely cosmopolitan. My present kilt had been hanging for years in the closet. Bought at a garage sale,it's homemade and miraculously it comes close to fitting me! It's a Black Watch Dress tartan. I had ordered another fae Scotland though in Sutherland muted simply because I like the colors. It should arrive in December. I feel really great to have returned to the kilt and reaction up to now has been great. It really does things to women I've discovered. That suits me just fine for that's the way that yours truly is inclined! I can think of many things to discuss aboot kilts but there'll be plenty o' time for that later. Meanwhile, I am happy to be on board.
Thanks, - Alan

Welcome Alan, lad you found us, we are a bunch of lads who simply love the kilt and think it should be worn as much as possible.

I hope you find the site encouraging, come back often!
