    5.11 Tactikilt is back!

    I just thought I'd let everyone know that the 5.11 tactical duty kilt is back! I know they go fast, so I've already ordered 2 myself!

    'Own five 5.11 Tactical Duty Kilts and recommend them.

    Great quality and durability for the price, definitely "casual" wear, tho in theory one could dress a solid colour 5.11 TDK up. The wealth of pockets makes a sporran superfluous, though a casual one emphasizes the garment is a kilt.

    Fave story wearing a 5.11 TDK; summer afternoon at the auto parts store, otherwise clad for "not-office type work," a rear-window wiper arm and blade in hand. A 70s-something lady said, not quietly, "Look, Trevvor, that man is wearing a dress!"

    The late-20s-something man with her said, "It's a kilt, Grandma." Grandma was wearing blue jeans.

    Loving The 5.11 Tactikilt!

    Aye, so excited that they're back as well! I bought 4 more myself. All solids. I love wearing them to work, around town, everywhere! They dress up pretty well too. The slant pockets are excellent!!!

    Question : Anyone ever wear one while travelling in Scotland? I wear them all the time in the US, but......

    Thanks!

    The Multicam came yesterday. The construction and security is impressive. The non spoken reactions have been good as I've already been out and about with it.

    Just my 2¢ worth.

    I recently got a grey TDK. I'm finding that it has less taper and a tighter fit in the hips than the rest of my kilts.
    Still, I like the fabric and the quality of construction.

    That makes at least two of us. The grey one I purchased this year seems a lot more fitted than the green one from last year. I know I haven't been especially active during the winter, but I didn't think I'd been that bad.
