Introduction
It is encouraged to introduce ourselves when we first register, so here I am. I am from the midwest of the US. I am interested in a wide range of subjects and activities. I like running reading and traveling. I am not someone to do things just because its always been done that way.
It has seemed strange to me in our modern world that there are more clothing choices of clothing to wear for women than there are for men. I enjoy the feel, for instance, of nylon, but it is diffecult to find well fitting garments made for men, made out of nylon. I would like to have the freedom to wear a skirt of some kind, but nothing is available in the common stores. Stranger still, there are more and more, garments available for women that I would consider quite masculine, but it isn't considered correct for men to wear skirts.
Which brings me to a question for you veterans: Where can one find a masculine looking skirt or dress? I don't want to dress up like a woman, but I would like to wear a skirt that looks good on my masculine frame. Any suggestions?

Re: Introduction
Welcome. It's a very popular subject here, where to get skirts that work well on a guy, and if you stick around you'll learn a lot here. A couple of the more popular suggestions would be Utilikilts (made for men), various other skirts made for men such as the Mountain Hardwear El Kommando, and women's hiking skirts that you can find on Ebay. Cheers!

Re: Introduction
Welcome to skirtcafe, I would agree with Owen, Hiking skirts can be a great choice as they can look masculine. Ebay is a great place to buy cheap and experiment with what looks good. If more of us guys wear skirts publicly in a masculine way then we will hopeful start seeing skirt options for men in mainstream stores. I agree, there is no variety or option in men's clothing, but places like skirtcafe seek to change this.

Re: Introduction
Nolyn, looking forward to chats with you. Again,
I had to remove this signature as it was being used on Twitter. This is my OPINION, you NEEDN'T AGREE.
