Kilt, (Scottish Gaelic: feileadh mr), is a type of knee-length skirt traditionally worn by men in the Scottish Highlands. It is typically made of heavy wool fabric in a tartan pattern, and is pleated at the back and gathered at the waist. The kilt is worn with a sporran, a small pouch that hangs from the belt, and is often accompanied by other traditional Scottish garments, such as a kilt jacket, waistcoat, and ghillie brogues.
The kilt has a long and storied history in Scotland, dating back to the 16th century. It was originally worn by Gaelic-speaking Highlanders as a practical garment for working in the rugged terrain of the Highlands. The kilt provided warmth and protection from the elements, and allowed for freedom of movement. Over time, the kilt became a symbol of Scottish identity and culture, and is now worn by people of all ages and backgrounds around the world.
