    My first AmeriKilt arrived a week and a half ago and is now right with my USAKilts Casual as a daily go-to kilt. I'm about to publish a review of my AmeriKilt (hopefully by Christmas Eve) complete with several photos. I'll be following that with reviews of my USAKilt Casual and then my SportKilt.

    I have a quality "dress" kilt (USAKilt wool in a Celtic Nations) but I really don't get much opportunity to use it. I certainly won't wear the wool kilt to the beach or hiking about doing nature and landscape photography.

    So, yes, you've got a good thing going in marketing them.

    If you are too busy to laugh, you are too busy.

    I'm new to the kilted world and had not imagined anything other than - I'll say traditional tartan without prejudice - until just recently. Seems my wife has become rather accustomed to a kilted spouse and she mentioned only yesterday that I should probably look into a kilt that I'd be less concerned about for general wear than the family tartan tank. Caught me off guard a bit, but have begun to search. So, this thread aptly timed. I do like the look of the 'day kilt' and/or perhaps an X-Kilt. So many choices, though a quality casual/daily wear (not quite rolling in the mud but not 'dress pants' either) is gathering momentum.

    Good point of view Taskr. Not all of us are privileged, ie. without duties that require punishment to our clothes. (I must include grandchildren as a duty - labor of love.)

    I've been moving stuff around on the site to make things easier to find. Here is a good link to our Explorer Kilts

    Also they are not exactly canvas but a gabardine - not as heavy as canvas. The black kilts are heavier than the khaki though so at least in our case if you are looking for lighter weight, the khaki would be the way to go.
