    Since my job is the highland attire business-EVERYDAY is kilted. I will note on the side that it is amazing how here in Atlanta, even out on the streets, no one minds. I consider being kilted and out and about free advertising since I will get the "Where did you get that" question from time to time. Even when I go to the hip/dangerous part of town "EAST ATLANTA", no one (Not even the gangsters and homeboyz) gives me a 2nd look. Its even correctly commented on from time to time there "Yo-That kilt is workin'-Where can I get one". Atlanta and San Fran really are 2 great kilt friendly cities. It probably helps that we have a HUGE Celt community here and a really big, well advertised highland games.......

    At first wearing a Kilt could be a distraction. Yet people do get used to it and it becomes an everyday thing. Since I work for myself it really isn't a big deal.

    NorCalPiper,
    You can add Boston to that list. Even when riding the T (public transit) through the roughest parts of the city, I too get the "Cool kilt, where d'ja get it?" from the gangbangers in their colors and trousers belted below the buttocks. I have been complimented many times for having the b@lls to wear the kilt on the T.
