I've worn an ankle holster with trousers/dress pants....
I'd be just as comfortable with a good thigh holster with a kilts.

LOL..............I's thinking more along the lines of tool'd leather and rawhide lace.

And he could get different colors to match each kilt!

In the few years since my bad encounter at that theater, the crowd hanging around has cleaned up quite a bit. Maybe that was a "Come to Jesus" moment for him and his friends! No I didn't have a kilt on that day.
Bigwheelzip really got to me on that photo!
The thigh holsters seem to be a good idea, but I really don't look good in lace with all the hair poking through!
I love the pics of service men in kilts. My second son wears USMC tartans when dresses up and digital camo for utility.
I thought about open carry. Besides being out of character with the kilts, I don't have any holsters for a 2 1/2 inch belt!

Hoot, mon, have ye nae a sporran???
If you wouldn't go there without a firearm, why are you there?
In other news--don't wear a kilt. No different than trying to conceal with a muscle-T or skinny jeans. Compromises must be made.

I like this one for myself.
Begs the obvious question about kilts, naw not really!!!!
Brave Response Holster (or some other type of belly band) might look promising to wear under your shirt. I've never seen one but did some checking for an internet-deficient friend of mine. Somewhere I saw a picture of this holster worn with the strap at armpit level (I think that would be uncomfortable).

Ivan,
"The thigh holsters seem to be a good idea, but I really don't look good in lace with all the hair poking through!"
Great heavens man you are wearn' a Kilt!! What difference does it make if a little leg hair is poking through the lace of a black thigh holster. You might think of ditching the pink bow but pass that get a grip! Besides if you get a in stinky storm the responding harness bulls are going to be entirely to broken up to care about whether you were right or wrong. There will be photo ops of you with the Kilt raised up (kinda like bigwheel zip) standing with the detectives, shift supervisors and EMT's. The digtial pics will be shown in training classes for decades. It's all good. hardcase60
PS. Having applied a little reading comprehension to your post which reads "but I really don't look good in lace" might leave some to believe you know this from experience. Not me, I think it's only something you don't think would look good.

Ivan while I happen to know the difference between a Kilt and a Skirt you need to be aware that due to the horrible public education system in this country for the last 40 years that 99% of those under 40 will perceive you as being someone wearing a Skirt. As a result they will view you as a "cross dresser" and that may lead to a confrontation. What I am saying is that you should consider the education level of the general public today when you decide to wear your Kilt and choose locations where the odds are good that the people there will actually know what a Kilt is.
BTW, my Grandfather, Father, and older Brother were all named Robert Bruce so I am very well aware what a Kilt is and the Dignity and Bravery demonstrated by those who once considered Kilts as what men wore and pants as something that only those terrible Englishmen wore.
Q: What is worn beneath the kilt?
A: Nothing. Everything is in perfect working order.
(Cue Sir Harry Lauder singing "Roamin' in the Gloamin')
Men like Bill Millin, "The Mad Piper" who , encouraged by his CO, Lord Lovat, piped Alliled troops ashore at Sword Beach on D-Day. German POWs said the only reason they didn't shoot him is that they thought "he must have gone off his head."

On Heritage Sunday at the area churches you see many in kilts.
I have never seen a child confuse a man in a kilt with anything in a skirt, Maybe their mothers train them better that their schools!
The belly band would be great under a sweater/sweatshirt, but in warm weather it is too warm for me! Aside from my ample waist, it is amazing how much you can hide under a sweater. To prove a point, I once had 2 Sig 220's in a belly band and 2 1911's (IWB and Small of the Back) plus a spare mag each under a pull very loose over wool sweater!

Golly, when I posted the photo, it never occurred to me there was anything wrong with it. Just an average middle aged man showing a well designed holster. I thought he'd fit right in on the set of Braveheart.

Google "Donald, where's yer trousers..." by the Irish Rovers. (A song'Bout the "Laddies from 'ell".)
Oh, if you open carry a Webley would look cool.
