Elkommando Kilt Gone

Spotted this via one of the ultra running forums I use, it might just be an ideal replacement.

I sent an e-mail to Mountain Hardwear tonight, and I'll let you all know what they say....

I found the following quote from the website quite funny given our usual climate!

"Anyone who has never worn a kilt in the desert heat doesn't know what they are missing!!"

Just a shame there aren't more photos of the thing, cos it looks quite interesting - are they the only seller?

I got a robo-reply from Mountain Hardwear, and I should hear something back in the next couple of days.......

They're brand new Ginger so should be more info coming soon, Dave who runs the sandbaggers site organises a desert race out in the mongolian gobi every year so I think thats what he's on about.

Good news, X-Markers!! I just got a response from Mary @ Mountain Hardwear, and she said the Elkommando will be back in stock for Spring 2012 in stores and online.

Great news.
I do "choose" other kilts, but the Elk is one that I most often "reach for" in Summer.

I'm in full agreement with that!

They are great for summer. I have an 'original' Mountain Hardware kilt that is just the thing for lawn mowing and the like, and the Elk is even better.

Funny, I still have my original too. I was just thinking it would be great for mowing grass and the like.
