    There have been some good suggestions thus far, but I would like to know where the OP is from? In Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, I've worn the kilt in -25 Celsius weather for a brisk, half hour, evening walk. Despite having a jacket, hat, scarf, gloves, heavyweight kilt, thick hose, sturdy shoes, and even "kilt johns," I was still getting a bit chilly by the end. Midway through the walk I had to roll my hose up over my knees because they were going numb



    If I were to do it again, I'd want to add another layer under the jacket, thicker hose, and perhaps more yardage and weight to the kilt too! If the OP is planning to work outside in his kilt all day in the winter, I hope he doesn't live in northern Alberta!!!
