It's about looking good, standing out from the crowd and feeling comfortable all at the same time.

Because they won't let you into the Barcelona Cathedral in shorts.

Because you can't wear shorts to work, but they can't say squat about a kilt!

Self Confidence, self Esteem. Because I can, and want. Opens conversation. Too many to list really.

Yes, this is a very strong reason.

I have yet to put my finger on it, buy for me there is a certain feeling about wearing a kilt that is beyond the comfort, attention, conversation starting reasons. I'm not sure if it is a (dare I say) past life thing or what... But I LIKE it. There is great feeeling of familiarity when I am kilted.

Because I CHOOSE to!

I choose to wear the kilt for my own reasons.

Because I like to be a rebel and go against coventional fashion, for it's good to be different. Also, I'm Scot-Irish, I WANT to wear a kilt, and the stubborness of my ancestors has made me into a stubborn "you can't stop me" kilt wearer!

1. Looks great formal.
2. Looks great casual.
3. Comfortable.
4. To honor one's Scottish and/or Irish Ancestry.

EDIT: More reasons!

5. Gets attention from curious ladies. ;)
6. The majority of people enjoy seeing a man in a kilt.
7. Respect from others. If ya got the stones to wear one, you usually got the stones to back it up. ;)
