The StillWater standard is a little much for the trails.

If you're looking for something that's actually worth the investment (which ain't too much) try looking into Jeff's offerings at PittsburghKilts.com. His ability to handle ANYTHING that you could want for the hikes is met with wonderful craftsmanship, quality work, and an honest approach to the business. I have a camo PittsburghKilt and it's absolutely wonderful when moving. The fit and construction will stand-up to anything that I can throw its way. Add to that the wide variety of materials and options available and you're sitting in a "sure spot".

You may also want to talk to Mike at AmeriKilts. They're absolutely wonderful for the hikes. He also offers a "Hiking Kilt" that's not listed on the site. It's worth an email.

Jimmy, good choices unless he wants tartan. In that case a USA or Stillwater should be fine.

If you look at the stories about the hikes, you'll see that many wear BearKilts. I guess it's only right to actually give credit where credit's due!

I know they're not exactly "Highland Chic", but SportKilts are actually designed to handle exactly what you're talking about. How many people are you gonig to run into on hikes that have a problem with them? Considering that they're constructed loosely for active people, perhaps they're worth the look. I've owned them and really have no problem with them for golfing, hiking or any other active use! The cost won't break you either!

WELCOME to the forum!

I cannot add anything that my kilted brothers have already spoken, you are in the right spot for learning all about kilts, I know I learn virtually every day.

Again welcome.
