    Practice

    Sometimes it relieves the anxiety some if you practice at home before going out. You can practice the sweep and slide movement on the sofa or a short bed (pull the covers back first so you aren't bunching them up under you). High stools, like in a bar, are another "out on the town" obstacle for some that may require some practice before going live!

    I have found that my comfort and confidence, when out and about in the kilt, goes a long way to increase my enjoyment of the experience.

    This is definitely something I will give a try. And yes, I agree, although some sitting was difficult, once I was seated I was extremely more comfortable than had I been panted. It was a great experience all around.

    Haha also, the last bar I was in kilted was "The Palace" in Prescott, Arizona. This bar is an old 1800s bar from long ago, and let me tell you, I have never felt more eyes glaring at me than when I took a stroll through there. It wasn't all bad, as I was leaving I was able to say hey to another kilted chap on the walk out. As I noted in my OP, this was when the Highland games were in Prescott.
