What's wrong with wearing a kilt? Some men who wear kilts also toss telephone poles. And I bet they can do it while wearing *****kickers.

Dave, they are very functional articles of clothing. I have to report, no kidding, that they are FAR cooler and more comfortable than shorts. They also are selling like hotcakes. I think their growth rate is somewhere around 300% per annum over the past several years.

Yeah, and if you find yourself marching across fields, playing bag-pipes, you can take a crap w/o missing a note (or whatever it is those pipes put out).

Oh and for the extra sharp urban kilt look; spend the extra time to iron all those pleats well. . . .and use fabric-softener . . .the one with the teddy-bear on the pink bottle.

Hmm . . are you hoping that is true. ..or just projecting?

I don't know if I understood everything you said here, but I was laughing so hard, it doesn't really matter!

[island911]

Thanks, you've been great. . .don't forget to tip your waitress on the way out.

Seriously, it's strange how some adopt this, that, or the otherthang, w/o a clue to why they're doing it, or the origins of the design. Kinda like the coke bottle, in the movie "the gods must be crazy".

Whenever I see one of these "sensitive pony-tailed guys" sporting a Kilt, I think he likely had his twig pierced and has to pee like a girl now, anyway. . .so hey, go with it. . the kilt works great then. AND he gets to show the world he's "difffffferrrrrent". oooooh

[Superman]

I dunno, Island. It's just that I have not been smart enough to place Mul on my "ignore" list. So, sometimes I wind up reading his posts and my reaction is always the same. Each time, my reaction is:



Oh, and perhaps you and I both wonder who might be hippie "posers" and who is the "real thing." For example, we know there are spies. We know because we get the film clips back from the local prosecutor. But you know me. I'm a fairly burly, lumberjack Greco-Roman wrestler type but you know what I found. I found that skirts are substantially more comfortable than the special costumes men must wear in your circles. You probably will never give yourself the opportunity to have personal experience of this, so you're just gonna hafta trust me.

[Superman]

More information: I'm happy to wear my Levi 501's and Dan Post lizards anywhere. Fifth Avenue or anywhere else. And besides, every room you step into, Island....is going to have men all wearing the same thing. Pants. So, I guess they're the really-serious-about-wanting-to-fit-in group.

Oh, and having raised teenagers, I think it's hilarious the balance they try to strike. They want to be weird and different. Yet they want to be one of the group and fit in. No wonder they seem schizophrenic

[dd74]

Jim - do you wear kilts? Aside from Dr. I's comment - which was funny - I find nothing at all un-manly about them. In fact, the men who I have seen in kilts have - how should I put it - a face on them that only a mother could love...

I don't know, Island: how many occasions in your life will you have to show your calves to the world?

I'd be really embarrassed to have a telephone pole when wearing a kilt.

[Superman]

Nope, I don't have any kilts, and frankly I'd be too embarrassed to wear them in public. No, I just wear skirts and dresses. I have several and borrow others. I thought I looked pretty good in a tight black mini-dress this last time. For those who are now scratching their heads, I only do this at a very large private (and quite liberal as you might guess) party in Oregon each July. Oh, and also at home if I need to feel pretty (kidding, guys).

But yeah, I know what you mean. Most of the guys I've seen wearing Utilikilts have legs like furry telephone poles, and faces like Chewbaca.

You guys are killing me!

23. *Disclaimer: It may be that this customer is talking about a broader sense of heritage, not necessarily Scottish, but more primitive and ancestral. Men the world over used to wear unbifurcated garments no matter what country or class they came from. We at the UKHQ do not try to promote the UK as a Scottish garment.

50. I love the reactions!
51. With the workmans, i don't need a backpack.
52. Wearing a kilt promotes creative and witty thinking. there's only so many ways you can respond to the "what are you wearing under that?" question. the trick is to wear it out to a busy location (disneyland) and try to come up with a different response each tme. ('i'd have to show you' is my favorite-the reaction is
quite fun to watch...)
53. it's easier to run away with your kilt up than it is to be caught with your pants down....
54. Have you seen how dorky some of the "traditional" dress kilts are? Those men don't need the freedom a
kilt affords, they need their balls back.
55. You don't have to be Sean Connery (or Steven) to look good in a UK. It looks good on everyone.
56. Chicks dig me in a kilt. Gay men dig me in a kilt (not my preference, but flattering none the less). Straight men admire the Ballsy attitude it requires to wear a UK in Corporate America (and wish they were you.)
57. Circulation. Freedom. Comfort. Style. Quality.
58. Two Words. Beer Pockets.
59. Women ask about underwear.
60. Heat vents on cold days.
61. AC vents on hot days.
62. The only person at a party that doesnt have to go to the fridge for another beer.

64. You never feel more alive then when you fall snowboarding and slide a few feet on your ass while in a utilikilt of course.
65. Because Thompson (author of:"So You're Going To Wear The Kilt!")
said to "wear it early and often".

66. After wearing UK's EVERY SINGLE DAY for a year-and-a-half gives
my company visual and professional recognition all over a large city
like Denver.

67. Because after a rugby match, nothing says, "I'm a warrior", like putting on
your utilikilt.
68. I'm a 'contra dancer' ie; traditional dance. A lot of men don semi-masculine skirts.. so when they are spinning and twirling.. they have something to flow.. The utilikilt allows a man to look great dancing...
and not be mistaken for a cross-dresser.
69. I AM A MAN AND I DON’T HAFTA WAX ANYTHING!
70. As a woman who loves male legs and their accessories,
it all comes down to one word: ACCESS.
71. “The only problem with a kilt, and I mean the ONLY problem is that when you cut a fart the smell lasts longer if you’re standing up. It kind of lingers--especially if it’s a hot fart…because heat rises.” – Mark Nichols
72. I am a woman who knows that men in kilts are extremely sexy. And I agree with #18.
73. Wearing a UK reflects my attitude of freedom to be who I am; a sexy, self assured, man who enjoys self expression, comfort and freedom to the hilt.
74. You get higher points from the Karoake judges recreating the Men without Hats
video "Safety Dance".
75. The zipper scene in “Something About Mary”.
76. Because driving cross-country in pants is just plain cruel!
77. Motorcyclist can REALLY feel the freedom of the open road (I do however suggest a modesty strap so as not to get pulled over every 500 yards)
78. Because I can wear / have worn the Black workman's UK to ANY of the following : hiking, semi dressy dinner, Goth club, Burning Man, beach, wedding - and got nothing but compliments. Try THAT with another piece of clothing.
79. So you can just say "lipstick" when someone asks what you wear under your UK.
80. For the enjoyment of being properly powdered by your girlfriend (or boyfriend) before you go out.
81. Just to hear my Scot friends yell "What f**ken tartan is that you bloody hieratic?" when I wear the cammo.
82. Men love pet names for their own, shall we say, "attachments". It just means we can retire the phrase "trouser-snake" and come up with something a little more inventive, perhaps "kilt-cosh" or "kilt-caber"!!!
83. Want to meet people? Wear a UK - you'll meet people right and left!
84. I've worn the kilt for years, with a recent hiatus because I'd 'outgrown' my traditional kilt. I finally took the plunge for a UK, and I think it's great. So does everyone I've discussed it with - I've not had a single derisive comment (not like I care). I'm a 43-year-old software engineering manager with a family (and a longtime biker) - f*** 'em if they can't take a joke. (Yes, I've ridden a motorcycle while wearing a kilt.)
85. In this culture, men have spent the last century ogling women's legs. It's time to turn the other cheek.
86. You introduce yourself to a woman, and she immediately starts thinking about your undergarments.
87. Consider what disintegrates just as your jeans reach their maximum comfort: knees and crotch, if you're like me. Enough said.
88. Because you can be the 'Belle of the Ball' at Gay Pride.
89. For women, it's not all about what's under the kilt. It's about that strong self confidence and absolute masculinity you exude when wearing one, too....no, I lied. It's all about what's under the kilt.
90. When your balls are free, you will find inner peace.
91. Because the extra groin room compensates for the cojones required to wear
one. :-)
92. Yes, I like a UK on my boyfriend because it lets me play with his "kilt-saber" whenever I want.
93. When else would you ever hear the phrase, "Dude, fix your pleats."
94. Chicks Dig Guys in Kilts... Plus the Added Bonus of KILT CHECKS!
95. The best reason to wear a UK is that it makes my wife laugh. I have to make sure that I have my wedding ring on when I wear my UK.
96. The Utilikilt in plain colors has no connection to any Scottish tartan or clan. I am a Friesian.
97. Less weight than a real Scottisch kilt.
98. Choice of underwear: a. Cotton, b. Nothing, c. Steel.
99. Roomy pockets, not moving with my legs.
100. I can carry my hiking-backpack with my UK, riding on my hips. No buckles there.

101. No need to unzip in the toilet.
102. I can’t wear shorts to work… can’t stop a man in a kilt.
103. Because I like being fondled by beautiful women I don't know when I wear a kilt on stage.
104. Because women have no control when faced with a kilt.
105. If going trouserless is good enough for Sean Connery, Mel Gibson, Russell Crowe, Adrian Paul and every single member of the FDNY pipers (just as an example), it's good enough for me.
106. Fornication.
107. Diarrhea.
108. When some one says, "I didn't know Scots wear denim," you can reply, "They do, but usually as blue jeans."
109. Why is it calleded a "kilt"? Cause we done kilt everyone who called it a skirt.
110. Uncrossing my legs (Sharon Stone, Basic Instinct) for the sexy woman opposite on the subway.
111. Automatic ******* Detection System: Anyone who snickers and says "nice skirt" is obviously a homophobe or just plain stodgy...
112. My wife loves it when I wear my Utilikilt. Plus I carry a lot of stuff on my days out and the Workmans kilt does it all!
113. Feeling the breeze...as the women lift your kilt to have a look.
114. Bald (we don't have folically challenged men in Scotland, or political correctness) bikers - feel the wind in your hair again.
115. Scotsmen gave the world the television, telephone, radar, penicilin and wedding parties that last all night. Wearing kilts leaves our testicles free, relieves stress and lets us invent all these things.
116. Kilts show the men who act like they are a man, who really is the Man.
117. Easier to kick the H*ell outta someone in a bar fight.
118. More leg room to gain speed when running from cops.
119. Reply to question of WHY you're wearing a UK, " Just so I can show you
the REAL Loch Ness Monster!!"
120. Because Lazarus Long was right about everything else...
121. Pants were forced upon my people by the Roman oppressor. They're just a plot from the Man, trying to keep Celty down! To paraphrase Morpheus, "Free your thighs!"
122. A MAN IN A KILT IS A MAN AND A HALF!!!
123. It's a chick-magnet - beware random acts of groping.
124. So the best things in life can remain free!
125. If someone asks "How are you feeling today". You can respond "Very regimental, thank you".
126. Have you ever tried to conceal an erection in a pair of Khaki dress slacks?
127. Gruntle \Grun"tle\, v. i. to copulate with a woman wearing a skirt.
Full Gruntle \Ful\ \Grun"tle\, v. i. a man wearing a kilt copulating with a
woman wearning a skirt.
128. When obnoxious drunk people ask what's under your kilt. You can tell them "your girlfriend's lipstick."
129. I am a tall broad man, and my kilt is the only piece of clothing I have that truly fits comfortably.
130. Have you ever heard of anyone pissing their kilt?
131. Kilt + Bathroom = Easy.
132. The extra element of suprise, when you have to kick someone in the head.
133. Nothing turns head faster when me, a bald chinese, walks a mall wearing them.
134. Finding pants for a 6'9" man isn't easy. Why not show off those long legs?
135. Cause men look sexy in kilts... Period
136. When your paintball team steps out onto the field in kilts is scares the bejesus out of the other team.
137. The difference between a kilt and slack is like a goldfish in a bowl... they grow to the size of their environment.
138. While in graduate school, one of my genetics professors told of a Scotish
study of scrotal temperatures between kilt and pants wearers. Testicles
are naturally outside the body to keep them cooler to enhance sperm
production, when they don't descend into the scrotum, a man is sterile.
Higher temperatures may also increase the mutation rate in sperm and
the cells that form them. So, biologically, a kilt is healthier for our
species. Note that all or most other mamalian species also have
external testicles. (Disclaimer- Yes, we know, dolphins, whales, and possibly a few other mammals don't have external testicals. This is one of the reasons we have not produced a "Flipper" model of Utilikilt.)
139. All I have to say is blue ribbon, u know the story from there.
140. In business / professional situations where shorts are not appropriate I can get away with wearing a kilt because A) People think that it may me a cultural thing. or B) They think that I am so confident in my profession I can do what ever I want. People remember me and if they have a problem with my kilt then they are up tight paranoids and I don't want to deal with them anyway. Lastly, my Wife likes it and daughter thinks its cool.
141. Pants wear all the hair off your legs, and that's nancy.
142. There is something so maseculine, strong, brave, wild, and...well...completely...umm...doable about a man in an UK...wow I need a cold shower.
143. The woman I was talking to at a party the other night who looked me straight
in the eye and very slowly (perhaps to see if I would object) lifted up my
kilt, looked down, smiled at me, and said, "Good boy."

nothing wrong with kilts but we need to wear something uder utility kilts like

[Arfa]

I think there is nothing wrong with wearing the kilt in any game. People who say wearing kilt is wrong actually don't have knowledge about Scottish culture.
I do prefer wearing Sport kilt from sport kilt. I really am not promoting this at all. Just my thinking.
