    Howdy

    ...to all present, and thanks for an interesting and informative board. I thought that since I had a minute, I'd introduce myself: I'm Bryan Williams from Colorado, I own two kilts ( a Celtic Craft Centre kilt in Clan Donald Lord of the Isles [hunting], and a UK), and if it weren't for my job and my motorcycles, I'd probably never wear trousers. I'm planning on getting something a little more traditional than the UK but still comfy (I'm looking at starting/trying/hurting myself playing in the highland games) so I've been checking out the Bearkilts; I'd really like to get something I can afford in my tartan that I can still wear when I'm throwing around rocks and telephone poles and such. Any other suggestions greatfully accepted.

    I'll continue to lurk the forum (I doubt I have much to contribute), and look forward to reading your posts.

    Slainte,
    Bryan

    Welcome Bryan. Along with BearKilts you might look into USAKilts Casual or semitraditional. Same easy care fabric.

    Welcome Bryan!
    Your situation is much like mine...motorcycles & having to wear a work uniform are the main things preventing me from being kilted 27/7.
