The Scottish Kilt: A Brief History...
The kilt is more than just a covering. It allowed those who wore it to move much more freely, especially in the Highlands of Scotland where the weather can become very damp. With its tight weave of strong wool, it created a barrier between the rain and skin. When the armies of the past were fighting in Scotland, the kilt with its pleat helped protect the soldier much like armor would. When the nights became cold, this garment was easily removed and spread out to create a blanket to keep the person who owned it warm. Lastly, if the army needed to move with a much quicker force, the garment could be easily removed, thus allowing the soldier more freedom of movement.
Today the kilt is the national dress of Scotland and worn by many. The various plaids that one can see from time to time are the colors of the particular clan that the wearer belongs to. It is much shorter than the ones worn by the Highland armies of yore, but still evokes the pride that was carried by those who lived above the land of Scotland.

Kilts are ok with microsoft...
He admitted that he wears kilts often and has never worn a pair of long pants since he's worked at Microsoft (about 10 years).
WTF... Hey buddy ... why a kilt? ... To work? ... Trying to impress somebody?
I mean ... do you whisper down the tech support line...
"Hey baby ... I can help you ... I'm wearing ... a kilt!"
Saturday was the Scottish Festival at witch I bought a Kilt for a killer deal and decided I would wear it to work.
Every thing was cool until I got back from lunch and Luke said to go Aux 4. He said I needed to go change because my Kilt was Unprofessional... HELLO I live in Payson, I would take an hour and half to change and come back. So I took 4 hours PTO because it’s not worth the gas to go and come back. And if you can’t tell be now I less then like this Job.
The kilt is FORMAL wear, like a suit. If it's considered acceptable to wear it to black tie and other formal occasions, why should wearing it be too CASUAL for work? As for professional wear, the U.S. Marine Corps' tartan is called the "Leatherneck", and there are also U.S. Navy and U.S. Air Force tartans. The Air Force has a pipe band and you know they wear the kilt as business attire.
If the kilt follows all dress code rules for ladies skirts, then I should be allowed to wear it. Otherwise, Dentrix is discriminating against Me or any other Kilt wear.
As someone with strong Scottish heritage, I welcome any man wearing a kilt. I don't believe you have to be Scottish to wear a kilt, any more than you have to be Japanese to wear a Kimono, or a cowboy to wear blue jeans. It’s a tribute to Scottish culture that it’s being adapted, not disrespect. It’s definitely far more comfortable and has some distinct advantages. Kilts are great for walking in, they don't rip out, and they force you into conversations with strangers.
For Example Business casual, something button down (including a polo shirt) goes well with most kilts, along with socks and a decent pair of shoes. For a more professional look, I will go ahead and wear kilt hose, a dress shirt (and depending on the situation, maybe a tie). Obviously, there are some things that won't work for professional dress or even business casual.
