Am I missing something? Tartans with pockets?

[James]

I've been wearing Hillwalkers by Hector Russell for many years now, probably about twelve-in fact my first HW was an original from before HW took over the idea.

Their pockets are leather bound at the opening, which makes for durability-and though obvious-no one, not even at serious highland events has commented. There is also a small fob pocket in leather on the right upper front of the outer apron: excellent for keys-a credit card etc.

For day to day wear it obviates the need for all the flummery of a sporran-a great advantage when driving.

I'd suggest that the HW is an ideal example of how the kilt has evolved and continues to evolve: whilst retaining it's traditional roots and satisfying a traditionalist like myself.

I would love to have a tartan kilt with pants style pockets, but the Hillwalker is too expensive for me. I wish someone would make a casual 4-yard (or so) kilt made of PV or wool with pockets.
