Also, someone mentioned kilted at a potter's wheel. Another gentleman and myself both throw while kilted. A workman's Utilikilt and the wheel are a workable arrangement.
I used to work in a tire shop and doing road side big rig tire service. NOT an environment to wear a kilt. Also 2 small town motorcycle shops, could have "gotten away" with it, but still not what I'd call appropriate.
