Can I wear a kilt around Europe?

I wore my kilt (heavyweight one) round Germany and I can heartily recommend it – I made many friends, had lots of drinks bought for me and got invited to a lot of events and parties as people could spot the Scotsman a mile off. I’m assuming you are Scottish – if not, you may get some hassle, potentially, for pretending to be one 🙂

In the summer it can be a little uncomfortable as Europe can get a lot hotter than Scotland, and kilts were made for cold environments, but a lightweight one may well be fine.

I’m not sure how good they are for long distances – I ran a half marathon wearing one and ended up with bleeding welts across both legs. Very painful. Especially if it is raining – the edge of the kilt will become like razor blades!
