Why are you forced to be in pants? I hope it is not because someone doesnt want your kilt being seen.
I cannot see how dirty, faded jeans and a T-shirt could be "better" attire than a well turned out kilt, sweater, dress shoes and hose.

I was recently told to never wear my kilt around the business office. I will not work in that place anymore. Goodbye great employer.

We do not need to convince others in our lives to accept kilts; we need to convince those wavering men in kilts that they must stand by their own choices, that they must wear their kilts when and where they choose, that they are men!
Those men that can't be convinced will wear pants. Not all men are cut out for kilts.
I'm happily kilted and free to find my newest occupation!
Go, have fun, don't work at, make it fun! Kilt them, for they know not, what they wear. Where am I now?

The kilt looks so much smarter than those ghastly unisex jeans.

Happy St David's Day to all of you.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't you work running high end hunts. I can see nice p@nts and a jacket (though nothing wrong with a kilt), but isn't a suit a little overboard? ![Smile](http://www.xmarksthescot.com/forum/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)

Wow, David, what a huge, huge step in your professional life! Congratulations.
So, now you are the employer - and maker, enforcer, and examplar of the dress code rules. Is there a fundamental shift in thinking from the other side of the table? Is the rule an unequivocal trousers, coat & tie, or does it also contemplate kilt, coat & tie? But, perhaps it is too soon to dally with such trivialities when more pressing matters demand attention. Your team-building comes first, no doubt.
Again, good fortune to you.

Sorry guys, this was meant to be a bit of humor. The office I work in is actually very open to my kilts. The owner of the company has actually (jokingly) said we shouldn't hire anyone else who is not man enough to wear a kilt.
Probably the main reason I choose not to wear a kilt more frequently to work is my lack of accessories (socks, mainly and I need a few more kilts to mix it up more). I've really only got 2 that are office worthy the others are for hiking (PK MarPat) and lounging (SK Navy Stewart velcro and elastic (We all started somewhere )).
If I can't be dressed correctly in a kilt I prefer not to wear it half way.

Watch it, Cav, this is a family forum. The mods might not take kindly to that kind of picture on here.

High end hunting business is just me, no employees. I shocked most of my friends there when I wore W2F's digital camo kilt last year at our shoot.
The office employees are my commercial insurance specialist and my benefits specialist. Both, by the way, have been told about kilt days!
