My Utilikilt Has Arrived!

in reference to this thread.

My Ultilikilt® arrived today by UPS.

Woo-hoo!

I know what I’m wearing to this Saturday’s Dopefest. :smiley:

For the curious, I have the “Survival” model from here.

aaah, freedom.

I apologize Sir. I must request photographic evidence of said purchase.

In other words…

CITE!

Just don’t be wearing it in the authentic Scottish manner, if you know what I mean.

It’s not the leather one, is it?

No, 100% cotton tan.

According to the website, this model features a “modesty closure,” which based on the illustration is a grown-up term for “extremely leaky diaper.” :wink:

You mean with a shirt with very long tails tucked over in a sort of breechclout? :stuck_out_tongue:

That’s the historically authentic way.

I hate to be a nag…but it suits me.

Pics please. Since it is all MY fault you have one anyway. I should be rewarded some how.

You realize, that I MUST wear my sportkilt to the Dopefest.

Just don’t wear it in the Scottish fashion.

Or mention the Scottish play.

Or drink all the scotch.

Or play hopscitch while drinking scotch wearing one.

Utility Kilts. U.T.I.L.I.T.Y K.I.L.T.S Seriously? Is that right? Can I work in the garden with said kilt? Will it throw off my caber toss game?

No worries… Regimental fashion is NOT the order of the day!

There WILL be children present, after all!

If you wear underwear, it’s just a skirt. Man up and wear it with some pride.

I DO!

But, I reiterate… there WILL be children present!
and they’re MY children, to boot.

But, I’ll be visiting the UK (Southampton & London) in early July.
I’ll gladly be wearing it in proper fashion then!

Sorry, I was only teasing.

When you wear it in the UK, however, people will either think you’re an Englishman at a wedding (“How do you spot an Englishman at a wedding…he’s the one wearing the Kilt”) or just assume you’re American. I wish they were more culturally fashionable, they offer a freedom of movement that I enjoy and shouldn’t be restricted to regimental dress or nights out!

A proper kilt is safe to wear in the traditional fashion because they’re super heavyweight and it takes some effort to expose any parts, a gust wont do it! Drunk girls will, however.

Ahem

With pic.

If they weren’t so pricey, I’d totally buy one for my “men’s weekend camping trips”

Johnny LA, the picture with the Queen is even better!

I love the pic with the Queen. The guy just looks so . . . happy!

But, as you can plainly see, he’s not that happy…

He looks more like he knew exactly what he was doing.

Notice the position of his hands, as if he spread the kilt across his knees on purpose and told his buddy to snap a picture.
