Men inTights, Wearing a kilt

[Liam]

My solution for the ultra cold "kilted" days - a 22 oz. kilt as Glen has suggested, long kilt hose - if necessary roll them up over your knees. Wear a long overcoat which covers your kilt and part way down your calves. I wear my "drover" coat to about - 10 deg C and a wool overcoat when it is colder. Much of your heat loss is at the top (especially those of us who are folically challenged) so wear a warm hat.

Well done! You look like John Murdoch in this photo.

I agree on the pull them up. That was the point of really long socks being rolled down below the knee in the first place, you could always pull them up.

I recently got married on a fine winters day In Minnesota in my Kilt. It was a balmy 4 F (-15 C) I have a 16oz 8 yard kilt and I was fine I had far more trouble with upper body during outdoor wedding pic session than I did with my lower parts. My legs were a lovely rosy shade though.

I've never fond it necessary to wear any form of leggings under my kilts, but if I did I'd go for the black thermal long johns I have for skiing. Unlike tights, they at least have a fly.

i have a pair of black thermal long johns that i cut a hemmed to be a few inches above my knee, on really cold days i wear these under my kilts and no one can even tell.
