Wool Kilt from eBay

[plaid preacher]

The general consensus here is that dry-cleaners should probably be avoided. First the dry-cleaning solution strips the wool of its lanolin. But equally important, most don't know how to press a kilt and so your pleats will come back all messed up! Basting is important! Basting is important! .. and, in case you missed it, basting is important!

Two solutions you might like to try. First, try steming your kilt with a hand steamer.... you can pick one up at your local dept store for about $30 and it comes in handy anyway...but especially for your kilt. If you pleats are hanging more or less straight, that might be enough to freshen it up.

The second alternative would be to find a kilt buddy who will teach you how to baste. Then you just throw it on the tub with a little cold water ...and walk on it. Best way to clean ...apparently.

My thoughts.
