    Re: Sport kilts

    Sportkilt is great for sports activities and very casual applications, but their low yardage, light materials and velcro / elastic waistband are quite different from the 'norm' as kilts go. An SK was my first kilt, but after a few wearings around other kilts I relegated it basically to bathrobe status.
    Folks will say SK is a good 'starter kilt' etc, but for about the same money as a well equipped SK, you can get a USA kilts Casual, which still has a velcro closure, but will be made to your measurements, with nicer PV material and construction, etc..
    Or even a Stillwater Standard or Economy, which while they're made from acrylic, are built more like a traditional kilt.

    I have a Works model Sportkilt and consider it to be the kilt equivalent of sweat pants: VERY comfortable but only suitable for exercise or puttering about the house.
