I can get a full 8 yard, hand-sewn kilt from Hector Russell in Toronto. (Interestingly, the first Hector Russell was in my home town of Greenock.) If I get the kilt by itself, it'll cost $645 which I think I can afford. Then I can wear it whenever I want, which would be quite fun.
I'm going to go with the Farquharson tartan which is my family tartan, although it's not my name. To add confusion, there are actually four version of the tartan I can choose from. Here's a peek at each of them.
Ancient
Modern
Muted
Weathered
I'm going to go and have a look soon to see which one looks best in real life as they can look misleading on a computer screen.

You're more of a man than I am to consider wearing a kilt to work. Just don't forget that while it is definately manly, you must still sit like a lady. ;0)
I definitely prefer the Ancient. And, really, don't listen to Jake. I'm sure the reason Kilts are open is to woo the ladies ;-)
