Shop Changing Rooms and Kilts
Shop Changing Rooms and Kilts
I know we all like to wear kilts and skirts but occasionally I am forced to buy a pair of the dreaded bifurcated article. Now, I am pretty slow in changing rooms as it is, but getting the kilt off and on if fitted with a sporran and trying the non-preferred things on takes ages, and has shop assistants asking if I am OK. I wish my kilt had an elasticated waist, but I guess I need a skirt.

Pm
Skirttron, I was going to pm you with this idea but you have no pm option so here it is. When you go into the fitting room wearing your kilt and carrying your bifurcated article try pulling your kilt up about 10 inches or so, pull the bifurcated article up under it, see if they fit, take them off, drop your kilt back down and out to the cashier. What do you think?

That's how I change from a skirt to pants... or from pants to a skirt... in public.
Well, actually not right out in front of folks, but sometimes behind my open door of the truck, or behind a building, etc.
I've never owned/wore a sporran. Is it more time consuming than a belt?
With my UK and Stillwater Kilts, I believe I get them off and on fairly easily.
Perhaps with a whole kit, it is a bit more time consuming.
Gotta keep this in mind...
Hmmm (dream scene coming up, just like on television)... I'm in the men's changing stall at a department store trying on a women's skirt.
Having taken too long in there, I am approached by a salesclerk who politely asks, "Are you alright in there Sir?".
To which I respond... "Sure! But could you take this skirt back to the Junior department and get me a size larger?"

A kilt makes trying on something biforcated ever so easy. If sporraned, just swing it round 90 degrees to get it out of the way. As the trad. kilt waistband is up near rib level you can trouser all you like as long as you can keep 12 million yards of heavy wool out the way that is.

Thanks for the advice, I'll try that, but I think it might make seeing how the tryons fit a bit difficult. On sporrans - the good thing about them is that they hang low at the front and stop the kilt blowing up in the wind. I sometimes use a belt bag instead of a sporran though, and when I have felt very brave recently, a shoulder bag.
