    Is unbuckling the kilt really all that much of a chore?

    Talking I'm not the only one

    Is there any other way? I thought once it's adjusted, keep it there, pull it on and "drop" it off every time. So much faster IMO...

    I'm in there with the bunch who cannot remove the kilt without unbuckling it. I am quite sure were I to attempt to remove the kilt without unbuckling it, the kilt would claim victory o'er my exhausted body as I lay crumpled to the ground, smote by 8 yards of colored wool.

    Well even if I did the hips would catch it anyway as manual assistance is required to get it over them!

    Looks like there are one or two of us who have this technique. Saves time messing about with finding the right hole in the straps.

    I have donned and removed kilts in both manners, even though stepping into it and pulling it up remends me somewhat of watching my wife put on a skirt. I think that most of us who can don our kilts in this manner suffer from a bit of middle aged spread.
