    Thumbs up That's more like it.

    I happened to be(er) strolling past the Utilikilts booth yesterday in my leather SK (far from perfect but perfect from afar) when one of the UK Men commented on how cool my kilt was. We talked a bit and the mouthy one was nowhere to be seen (again). Lots of UK out and about (and one particular Muir tartan mini showing her regimental style :rolleyes: )
    Only HUGE, MAJOR downside is the ampitheatre is corporately sponsored by budweiser so there's no real beer there.

    CT - everybody plays nice and nobody gets an eye poked out.

    I saw one of the Sportkilt Premium kilts at the SK booth. It wasnt a bad looking kilt at all. They had a solid black model, and the guys there said it came in several other solids and camo patterns. No tartans that they knew of.

    It was a decent weight material, had a rear flap pocket, sewn down pleats, and belt loops. Standard velcro closure but no SK lion emblem where they normally have one.

    It pretty much looks like a standard SK but with all the options already checked off for you. Price seemed about consistent with that as well.
    Definately not a bad kilt for the money. It still doesnt seem as well made as a UK traditional for nearly the same money, nor a USAK casual from what I hear, but a MAJOR improvement from the normal SK offerings.

    I'm sorry I didnt get a chance to see your leather kilt, I really wanted to check that one out. Sport Kilt is making some great improvements, I hope they keep it up.
