One of today’s more masculine fashion trends are kilts, although often associate kilts with Scottish dancing, bagpipes or highland marching bands, they are now making a comeback and not just with those of us who have Scottish ancestry, although many people if they look up their family tree will find some Scottish branches there, and who knows they may even have a traditional family clans colour such as a red/green/gold and black tartan design. These were like a coat of arms for easy clan identification especially in Battle.
There are several reasons why a utility kilts is a great alternative to shorts or long pants, and they are not restricted to men, but are unisex as many fashion couscous women will tell you. But there is nothing feminine about a kilt, they are very comfortable and give the wearer much more room in the places it’s more important, than pants.
How to Choose a Kilt
Establish your size by taking a simple measurement at the waist or hips depending on where you prefer to wear them. The traditional kilt is usually, worn from the waist, although many people also like to hang their kilt from their hips in much the same way they would wear hipster jeans. With a kilt, you don’t need a belt as they are made with adjustable straps
A kilt can be worn with or without undergarments; it’s a personal choice that the wear should make using their own judgment and preferences.
As kilts are very versatile they can be worn for any occasion as they never look out of place. Some kilts are designed especially for formal occasions while others are more suited to going to the beach or hiking, playing sports or any other physical activity.
Style
Often a man who likes to wear a kilt will have a variety of different styles from utility kilts to formal dress kilts that can be worn to work or occasions such as weddings or funerals. One thing that is very noticeable is that they are always much more stylish than pants and are much more comfortable to wear.
Workwear kilts are usually made of cotton twill or duck and hemp is now becoming a very fashionable material for sports, leisure and utility kilts.
Formal wear kilts were traditionally made from woven woollen fabric, often in a tartan pattern although, today they are made with many different modern high fashion fabrics.
Because of the way kilts fit and the greater amount of movement they allow, they are becoming the choice of many men and the ladies seem to really like them on their men too. When wearing they have a certain flow and because of the way they are designed and tailored, with its pleats, folds and curves they never ride up or become too revealing.
The selection of utility kilts available today allows men a much greater freedom of choice and comfort than ever before.
