Hows the leather itself doing in the pleats and condition?
PLEASE (like I need to ask) be brutally honest with the responses!

He hasn't had it for awhile... I had to do some tweeking... made the pockets removable while I was at it. I now just have to get it back to him.
I made mine back in January and I wear it 2-3 times a week. It just gets better with age.
Honestly I did have to repair a seam on my own. but I now use a heavier weight nylon thread and have a stronger machine for the process which has eliminated the problem.
Last week I went on a motorcycle trip packed the kilt... as in rolled it in a ball in a saddle bag. When I got there unrolled it... bingo... just hangs sweetly.
My wife saw me walking down the street and was amazed at how much it swooshed from side to side.
Have had loads of positive feedback on this unit.
So I hope to get this back to Phil soon so he can put it through the mill and give you his report.
Sorry Jimmy just had to butt in....
cheers
