Kilted Highland Hiking

Looking good.
I'm planning to yomp up Ben Nevis next year, and now I have a kilt, its probably worth me trying it out to compare against my hiking pants.

There's NO comparison! I've hiked and backpacked for years. Used to get "rubbed the wrong way" in all manner of shorts, pants, technical climbing pants, etc. Tried patagonia capilene briefs/boxers which worked okay, but Regimental in a kilt is the absolute best solution. Hell, it worked for my ancestors! 1 modern convenience: BodyGlide. It looks like a stick of deodorant, but is a lube I used when running marathons/triathlons. A few rubs on the inner thighs, and ahem, other sensitive nether regions works wonders. I know, I know -- TMI. Just trying to help a brutha out!

I've used it and it's great - particularly in warm weather when big guys like me tend to get chafing.
