Why do YOU wear a kilt?

It is comfortable
It makes me feel good
It makes me look good
It makes me proud to be Scottish

Well, mainly because of my family's heritage/culture . . I guess :mrgreen: . I can't really say its because I'm sexy . . LOL. Although, my wife thinks so

. Besides, I didn't spend a few hundred bucks to have something just hang in my closet . . LOL.

They are not pants... that's why.

I am not sure why I started to wear a kilt. I don't wear it very often (about once a month). I have had 3 kilts so far, and none of them have been as comfortable as the pants I wear (sorry for the blasphemy). I am still looking for that amazing kilt that will make me want to not wear my pants. I do it mostly to celebrate me and my wife's Scottish ancestry. Plus, it is fun to change things up a bit.

I recieved a swatch of my tartan today.

I put my pin on it and wore it as a kilt pin, like a flash, on my kakhi, pleated-canvas man-skirt.

It made a difference in how I felt about it.

(I was using the 10 minute loop, not the 1 minute ones. But still, to much AC can be kinda borderline painful.)
