Contemporary Kilts -- a Visual guide....

[CMcG]

I'm bumping this thread, because I think it could be very useful, and I want to see it survive. For instance; I need some boots. I live in the middle of nowhere, so I can't just wrap on a kilt and go shopping for them. If it can't be bought at Wal-Mart, it has to be mail ordered. Do I want 10" jump boots? The Life-in-a-kilt looks great in them, but he's about 6'14" tall. Are my legs too short for them to look good? Am I too fat to pull off the look? How about 8 eyelet Docs? Are they too short?(how can we not have a "Boot" thread stickied?) Yes, I'm too old to care what people think of me, but I want to respect the kilt. I think this thread would be great for that kind of question, because the title of the thread screams "Picture Thread". Now we contemporary kilt wearers need to get on the stick and post some pictures! Many thanks to Mael, and the others that have posted pictures. I promise I'll post some soon.......

Hopefully the guide that Steve is creating will address some of your questions...

I've always found the following side-by-side comparison helpful, at least for modern kilts (posted on Duncan/Channon). Personally, however, I prefer a bit more bulk on the socks...
