So I washed my UK tan cord kilt. Now this is probably not a big deal, but I was a little nervous. I followed the instructions on the sheet you get with the kilt, hung it to dry smoothing the pleats. I have to say it worked perfectly! It needed a little ironing, but to be honest not much. The kilt looks (and feels) great. Slightly softer than before. So, for any Xmarkers who have a UK and have worried about washing it, I would say give it a go! And thanks to the folks at UK for making such a great product.

Still have not had any of my tartan kilts cleaned. Hmm, different prospect altogether as I've heard horror stories about disastrous pleats etc.
