"You don't have to be Scottish to wear a kilt"

[Stevej180]

This article is positive, using terms like 'troublemaker' and 'rebel' in a playful way about a tailor in Edinburgh.

It's in Spanish but you can feed it into your favourite translator.

Howie is a legend. I’ve got two of his moms including a full three piece no tartan kilt suit which is amazing to wear.

My Spanish isn’t good enough yet to read the article, but I can pick up quite a few words. Time to order a Spanish dictionary from Amazon!

Love the guys style and subvert the dominant paradigm attitude, but you'll need a barrel of shekels to don his tartan-less Tesla Faldones.

I learned about Howie back in 2002 or 2003 when I was visiting
X-Marks the Scot kilt forum.

He made impressive outfits then and still does.
WAY OUT of my price range.
My wallet cringes/screams in pain, at the thought of purchasing one of his creations.

No matter, they are fantastic

Also, you don't have to be Scottish to have Scotch in your blood. All you have to do is to drink Scotch whisky.

You don’t have to be Scottish to wear a kilt, but why would you want to? I’d sooner wear tight trousers.

I think you are thinking of that Rod Stewart Scottish bloke who liked his tight trousers until they gave him problems in the trouser department. Turns out he should have worn a kilt!!!

I think you are thinking of that Rod Stewart Scottish bloke who

.....was born in London.
Scots father and English mother, he has never lived in Scotland as far as I know and I doubt he spends much time in the UK these days either.
Still, given his sponduliks, he could wear anything that lets him think he's sexy, eugh!
