I DONT LOOK LIKE JAY KAY

He's about 4 foot tall for a start

Also, I was about to make a joke about this becoming a right cock and ball story but your interjection has ruined the flow of it and I dare say, ruined my life. So I hope you are happy with yourself missy!

job done

*flees*

Kilts are cool. Apparently there's a reasonably credible historical claim to support Welshmen wearing them but I'm not quite convinced of its authenticity.

But kilts are cool.

Many old cultures wore kilts, plenty of evidence for that. They are far from a uniquely Scottish thing. Mind you, the modern "kilt" owes very little to any historic reality.

I generally don't wear my kilt unless you pay me but on the odd occasion I've worn one socially, the reactions have been remarkable to say the least - women have been known to scream! (with pleasure, I might add )

You have Dreads - Dreads & kilts are a particularly winning combination IME & in the right circumstances can look very good indeed.

i'd love a good kilt, worn with a big gnarly pair of boots. Not tartan though, some kind of black

Never tried a kilt but do think they look smart.

Question is, what tartan does one wear if, like me, you have no known Celtic ancestors, let alone a clan?

You don't have to have a tartan.

i own, and occasionally wear, a kilt in my family tartan:

it looks very dashing, although i do get an almost irrepressible urge to flash my tackle at all & sundry...

 

[nino_savatte]

Love it!

A whole load of shite is claimed about tartan as well - The family/clan associations of all but a very few tartans are a completely modern invention. Indeed there are paintings of generations of members of some of our most prominent families - all wearing different tartans, eg the Frasers.

Anyway, no problems getting kilts in all sorts of non-tartan forms, incl cammo, black & leather:

Personally, purple makes for a good kilt IMO.

Also, the oldest known examples of tartan come from China & in Europe, from England.

brian molko looks like a schoolgirl in one...

 

[geminisnake]

Would wear one in the right circumstances

I think you'd suit a kilt and para boots

Must admit I think kilts should be made of wool or leather.

I've got a couple I got from charity shops years ago. They're good winter wear.

 

[Louloubelle]

phwoooaaar!

 

[subversplat]

I like the idea of a spiky belt rather than a sporran.

I wonder if I could knock something up out of a tasteful leopard print

Was thinking I gotta get a leather kilt! Then I clicked on the link and saw the price

From £475.01 (inc. VAT)

 

[pogofish]

phwoooaaar!

I got as far as the guy with the fucking flip-flops!

Quite a lot of them are wearing their kilts wrong as well BTW.

Shop around, I think I've seen them a good bit cheaper. Mind you, a proper fitted kilt is an expensive thing anyway. Mine has served me well for a very long time.

Kilts are great but not if you have skinny calves... don't even bother then. And always with boots - big boots, anything else and you look like a dick.

All the staff in this pub in Glasgow used to wear kilts:

*dies from lust*

[scifisam]

I really want a kilt but am too cheap to buy one.

That sounds like the start of a terrible joke.

 

[equationgirl]

Men in kilts are hot

The main reason i bought myself a kilt was to show off my fat calves.

Boots are best but regular Brogues are okay too.

these however are very very very wrong..
