Maybe I have never seen a sport kilt up close and have not heard many good things about them but I did try to email about that material and get a feel for it and I never got a reply.
if it was a decent Poly Viscose i might be tempted. there are a ton of great seamstress's around the base I work on. but i see kilts allot like a car "if you don't got a good frame and body to work with no amount of spoilers and stickers is gonna make it cool" ya know.
