    Depending on your doctor’s instructions regarding the boot, wearing the kilt rather than trousers might also keep you from removing the boot too often.

    If there’s no reason (excuse) to remove it, even to “change for dinner,” you may find your recovery is helped along.

    Enjoy the cruise! Lovely Wife and I are taking our first — a Rhine River cruise — later this month.

    As stated before. medical devices don't hinder the wearing of your kilt. You may have to bow out of a few dances. Heal quickly.

    Rough indeed! At least you will look dapper while healing (liquid medications help).

    I'll throw in with the "go for it" crowd. When it comes to your health, you gotta do what you gotta do. And as long as it doesn't make wearing the kilt impossible or impractical for you, then wear the kilt in good (hopefully quickly improving in your case) health. I spent a while in an imobilizer after unintentionally attempting to remove my right leg just above the knee. I wasn't kilted back then, but if it happened today, You bet I'd be rocking that imobilizer beneath pleats and plaid.

    Prayers for a quick recovery and an enjoyable (hopefully kilted) evening.

    Being married to a Medical Assistant, for almost 37 years, I've seen lots. I would assume a kilt with a moon boot, or a cast, would be acceptable. We attended a wedding where one of her patients wore a 3 piece suit & a cast. As has been put, before this, medical devices are/should be allowed with any form of attire. Above all, enjoy the cruise.

    I'll echo that a kilt is probably easier with the moon boot.

    And if anyone asks what's under your kilt, your response can be "are ya blind?!"

    and gives you a perfect line when someone says something about a skirt. Point to the boot and say "Last time someone called it a skirt, I busted my leg kicking their **** over their shoulders".
