Re: What is your favorite skirt for flying and why?

I've worn my Stumptown Kilts several times. That's kind of my go-to. I just like the way they look and they're comfortable, too. Also the Skirtcraft Aqueous skirt, which is super comfortable, but you have to watch how you sit a little more closely. I haven't tried my short version of the Macabi skir...

Re: Sightings "in the wild"

Stumptown Kilts in Portland makes women's kilts. Two lengths, both shorter than those specified for guys. One other difference though. Their waistbands are conical, whereas the guys' kilts tend to be cylindrical.

Re: New to all of it

UPDATE: I have culled the herd, so to speak, and probably gotten rid of a few things I should have kept. Even with resistance from my S.O., I've found the utility type kilt appears to be the best way to go for me at this time. Not in the mood to fight a "skirt battle" right now, when I hav...

Re: New to all of it

Thanks! My adult daughter appears to be on board with the kilt thing now. She thought I'd even planned to make sales calls in them. I guess I did say I'd wear them anywhere when my wife popped that question. ALMOST anywhere would be more accurate! I do have one guy on the route who's a kilter so I w...

Re: New to all of it

Update:Tried on a Utilikilt in Seattle. Now I know why they cost what they do. They are fairly expensive, but NOT overpriced. Material and workmanship is outstanding, and I like the look a lot. Will probably start kilting with one of those. Now the bad news. I thought the wife would be at least indi...

Re: "Comebacks" for remarks made at your Unbifurcated

MtnBiker...I heard a great response to "Why do you paint your nails?' The guy answered, "To change the color of them." Love that.

Re: Frustrated

I have had great luck at thrift stores. Have yet to pay over $4.00 American for a skirt. I take a tape measure with me whenever I go. My skirts range in women's sizes from 6 to 14. Quite a variation in sizes. I seem to have a good eye for the better stuff, too. Without really trying I've ended up wi...

Re: New to all of it

Don't plan on sneaking around. My wife knows I'm not opposed to the concept of skirts and kilts. My oldest son has done a few kilts and skirts, with good results. Waiting for a proper time. Update on today... Lots of windshield time. Got gas twice, went inside once, three rest stops, and checked int...

Re: New to all of it

Yeah, caultron, I know...Very few people do actually notice. I checked into a hotel and hauled all my stuff up the stairwell past a woman sitting talking on a cell phone. Unnerved me a bit, but didn't seem to affect her in the least. I'm from small town upper midwest, which may explain a few things....

New to all of it

I've always enjoyed women's fashion...on women. Always thought dresses and skirts looked great on them. Still do. I was quite terrified of any kind of "dressing" mainly because of what other people would think. I also was concerned I might like the way I felt in a skirt and wasn't sure how...
