    Kilts are not the only things that are worn incorrectly. Take a look around you when you attend any function where suits are worn - most of the younger men don't have a clue even how to tie a tie properly and the fit of the suit is terrible. If they bought the suit, the salesperson doesn't know enough to teach them how it should fit and they are often wearing the wrong size/length, etc. I see so many suits coming in to be hemmed and they are marked incorrectly at the store! And of course, because they are so uncomfortable, they take off as much as they can, as soon as they can, and end up looking even worse, if that's possible.

    The greatest tragedy is when tuxedos are worn - the reason they are wearing a tux is to look their absolute best and yet they often look terrible - probably 99-100% are hired and they look it!

    When a man cares enough to buy his own classic cut tuxedo from a tailor, just like a kilt from a kilt maker, it can last most of his life. There is nothing as handsome as a man in his best outfit, whether it is a tuxedo or a kilt.

    At least when they are wearing a kilt, they aren't trying to take anything off before the end of the evening - perhaps they don't want to embarrass themselves in the process. Thank goodness for small mercies.
