To kilt in modern north american society

[Tarheel]

I too have found that our community is some what receptive to heritage clothing. However here at the Univ. of Miss. the foreign students wear modern American clothes to socially fit in. When I wear my kilt out and about, there is a revival of customary clothes for a while and then things return to jeans and t-shirts quickly. I don't feel peer pressure or disapproval to my being kilted (except that my wife still doesn't like it). But I believe a trend could be established if more men wore kilts often.
