I've seen stores for those here
Utilikilts has a big store in town.
Here, in Seattle, and a few extra geeky cow-orkers have been known to wear them.
This is the only place I've ever seen them though.

I wouldn't think 'geeky' and 'kilts' went together. :-)
I do remember seeing a few kilt-wearers around Sydney when we had the Rugby World Cup a few years ago. They all seemed to be Irish...

Depends on the type of geek
Think about the fashion sense of the sort of geek that makes and wears their own chain mail.

That's a point.
So that would be an SCA geek, for instance.

Never wore a kilt myself - I'm more of a long tunic kinda guy... There's plenty of folk that do, though - pretty much all 'Scott personas' (no, not THAT Scott!).

Thank goodness
and that would be Scot personas, so as to avoid the confusion with that Scott.
I remember the making of the chain mail, though....but never into a kilt...that would chafe, methinks, in places where chafing is definitely a bad thing.

Just think of the chafing!

"Chicago to my mind was the only place to be. ... I above all liked the city because it was filled with people all a-bustle, and the clatter of hooves and carriages, and with delivery wagons and drays and peddlers and the boom and clank of freight trains. And when those black clouds came sailing in from the west, pouring thunderstorms upon us so that you couldn't hear the cries or curses of humankind, I liked that best of all. Chicago could stand up to the worst God had to offer. I understood why it was built--a place for trade, of course, with railroads and ships and so on, but mostly to give all of us a magnitude of defiance that is not provided by one house on the plains. And the plains is where those storms come from." -- E.L. Doctorow

Some of us ...
