Well, if that's the case, go for it. I bought a SWK thrifty kilt for the Warrior Dash, just because I didn't want to trash a more expensive kilt. As long as you know that it is a velcro closing (no buckles), without sewn-down pleats, it seems like a no-brainer. If you ruin it, or don't like it for some reason, you're only out $30 plus shipping...
