    Anyone have a kilt from What Price Glory? How about an evaluation?

    I know for sure that g koch and Elijah own kilts from them. Sounds like Elijah really likes his.

    Here's a thread from a few months ago about What Price Glory:

    i got also one of those military kilts from seaforth highlanders (mckenzie tartan)
    i didn t purchased it from price glory, but i suggest the took the model from a normal military.

    so these military kilts are so great...
    the have a special pleating system, where white stripes from mckenzie tartan are pleated out themselves and just then the pleat continues as on any kilt.
    then those small front-strip pleats are sewed together in a loose way with an elastic band near the bottom of th ekilt.

    the material is heavy and looks strong. and, what i loved at most: the under apron is self-falling down when legs are spread.

    how had i lived without one of these kilts before, and i m so sorry that this kilt is not available in a summer version.
    have to tell british defence ministrey ;)

    I think my WPG kilt is my best fitting. It hangs straight down.

    It's heavy.

    It's not worsted (at least, not as I understand "worsted"). It has a felt-like quality.

    It's warm.

    The buckles are somewhat small and a bit difficult so I just leave it buckled and slip it on or off.

    I bought it maybe two years ago....things may have changed.

    I think they are worth the price.

    yeah true, i forgot the only inconvenient on this kilt: the buckles are small with two thorns (is this the word?) quite pointed nearby being dangerous. needs twiddling.
