    I have competed in nearly 10 more mudder-style events (even an actual Tough Mudder) since I wrote that review, and the USAK Casual is still holding up nicely.

    As for what you should wear underneath the kilt, I find that a pair of 'Flash' Underoos works the best--snug enough to keep everything in place, and that lightning bolt over your bits makes you feel 17 again.

    If you're concerned about water weight over the course of 10-13 miles, a kilt in PV or acrylic or wool is going to pick up a bit of heft. But, hey--it's all about the challenge of the thing, right?

    Have fun, be smart and be safe in your race!

    --Edit--

    Just saw the post by Sailortats expressing concern over the staying power of velcro--As I said, the kilt and its rippy black fasteners have seen some terrific beatings and are still soild. I am, at this point, considering replacing the velcro, but only as a preventive measure--the only time the velcro fails is at the post-race gatherings, when the hordes of beery, sweaty, filthy girls mob this poor old man and rip off all my clothing. Nothing stops that kind of libidinous hysteria.


    Okay, that last part is mostly fantasy. The other stuff is true. Promise!
