    Yes indeed!

    The kilt I was issued likewise is scarred from a quarter-century of being worn in a band that wears kilt pins.

    There are various small holes and also rust-stains from the pins' fastening mechanism.

    Why oh why do Pipe Bands wear kilt pins!?

    There's no going back- once all the band kilts have holes and stains you have to keep wearing kilt pins to hide the damage.
