Suggestions For Camo Kilt?

**KiltedTrucker** · 1st February 16, 06:04 PM

I want to order a camo utility kilt. I found one from UT Kilts, but thought I would seek suggestions from the fine members here before ordering.

I guess it all depends on what Camo pattern you are after. Is having an actual camo design important to you or will you accept a Chinese camo like print fabric?
And do you want domestic made or is from Pakistan good enough?

I imagine its like one of those "how long is a piece of string" questions, but I did see a couple of kilts being worn in Inverness some time ago made from "Flecktarn" pattern cammo that looked pretty good to my eyes.

Interestingly I have seen a shooting suit made from weathered tartan cloth. I cannot recall the tartan, but it was in fact, pretty effective camo, even after I got over the shock!

I started a thread on it here once, I suppose its still lurking in the library somewhere if anyone is interested.

I remember that thread and I loved that suit! I am a fan of any nice tweed in a shooting suit though. I am an oddity here in the States that I can be seen fly fishing in a waistcoat and tie and like to shoot birds in tweed.

Thanks. I'm not sold on a specific camo design, I'm open there. If it looks good to me, and is a reasonably good fabric, meaning not acrylic, I'm open to it.

I bought a camo kilt at a fair from highland kilts. It is likely a product of Pakistan. It is absolutely the kilt that gets the most comments of my collection. Unfortunately it is always a wrinkled mess and will be relegated to a work kilt. Your conserns regarding ironing from another thread lead me to advise ...avoid this highland kilt product. It is unfortunate because the people there were very nice.
