It's amazing how many people think the pleats go to the front. I was at a black tie dinner once where I saw someone wearing the kilt backwards. I admit, I had to have a little chuckle first before I went over and tapped him on the shoulder and let him know that it was on wrong. I wound up helping him get everything on right.
My good deed for the day, I guess.

I rarely wear a kilt pin. I dont know why, it just seems like a hassle and I have no problems keeping my apron down without them. I would much rather have a new pair of hose than a kilt pin.

They really don't add much weight, so are mostly decorative.
As to the hassle, one secret is to get a different kilt pin for each kilt and leave it on the kilt. This also saves the wear of constantly adding and removing the pin.
I consider the pin one more way to add individual expression to the kilt and try to find a pin that matches the kilt in symbolism. For instance, I have a celtic dove pin for my Dove tartan kilt.

Yeah, I understand. When I get some spare change a Cunningham pin will be on my list.
