What is a "kilt"?

A kilt is a traditional Scottish garment worn by men, typically made of tartan fabric and worn as a knee-length skirt. The kilt is pleated at the back and usually fastened around the waist with a wide leather belt, known as a sporran. The garment is often worn with a jacket or vest and knee-length socks, known as hose, and ghillie brogues, a type of laced shoe with no tongue. The kilt is a symbol of Scottish identity and heritage and is commonly worn at formal events such as weddings and Highland games, as well as for everyday wear in Scotland and around the world.
