    Quiet Hint to Modern Casual Kilt Makers: VELCRO! USAK and Sport Kilts have it right.

    Re: Elkommando returns

    Please, no. Not Velcro. I hate the stuff on clothing. It's noisy, snaggs lint, and shreds any surface that might rub against the exposed hook portion. I remove it and replace it with another fastener where I can.

    Re: Elkommando returns

    The last kilt I ordered from Seamus at SK, I ordered the Velcro mounted 1/2 inch lower so it would not saw into my tummy. It isn't the hooks as much as it is the stiff backing Velcro uses. It helps to miter the corners of the backing material a lot. I always wash with the Velcros mated.

    Re: Elkommando returns

    It being the Elkommando re-debut day, I checked Mountain Hardwears site - not there.
    Checked REI site - It's there as a backorder item, pictures look the same as it was before. Same hem length.
