I Love Kilts

I love wearing my kilt out in town. The freedom of movement it provides, the ventilation around naturally warm areas of the body, and of course the joy of seeing people looking twice. Thing is though that I don’t wear a traditional kilt; I wear a Utilikilt. A Utilikilt is a modern version of the traditional kilt but tailored for the typical outdoorsmen: fully pleated instead of half, cargo pockets on each side, belt loops, and made of a sturdy canvas material.

I always get asked all kinds of questions like: how do you put it on, how were the pockets attached, how it felt, freedom of movement, prices, styles, etc. But then comes the one question that every kilt wearer seems to be asked: what do you have on underneath? Normally and during the winter months, I go Irish; meaning that I wear underwear. But during the spring humidity and summer heat, I dare myself to go Scottish; meaning that I go commando.
