SportKilt - USA Kilts Casual Comparison Part II

[Riverkilt]

Some good points Chris, thanks. Nice to have feedback from day-to-day wearing of the kilts.

The weight of the triple top apron on the SportKilt has helped me when I'm seated too ( I sit for a living)...reminds me of the even narrower Utilikilt aprons that I don't even think about anymore when sitting or seated.

One thing the SportKilt does when I sit is sort of pull away on the left side of the apron...where the USA Kilt and most kilts have sort of a reverse pleat that opens up, the SportKilt has that huge run of fabric. Think of a backwards Z where the fabric that is making the pleats is pulled across as the apron, then doubled back and folded back again....kind of diffuclt to describe, but result is three layers and an open left side...not open in terms of exposure, but open in terms of expansion.

I just received the USA Kilt today, but of course have tried sitting in it. One thing I noticed is that the underapron drops between my legs and covers the boys well when I sit. Important to me since I often wear a vest or jacket instead of a sporran. That gave me confidence.

And, thanks for the tip about "rolling" the waistband down to shorten the SportKilt. I mostly wear mine for hiking and had not thought of that. Good idea.

Roses and Orchids....they're both beautiful in their own way...people choosing one, doesn't belittle the other.
