    Do you do the slash side pockets, or only the cargo style?

    Sorry no slash pockets at this time so you got me there. However I do have a system for optional leather sporran that doesn't require a special belt.
    Any way there are some choices out there for you.

    when you say "modern kilts", are you talking solely about solids and camos? There are a few companies that make PV kilts with straps/buckle closures.

    I would also be open to tartan kilts with the modern conveniences. I guess I'm looking for the "missing link" of kilts, combining features from both traditional and modern.

    Have a look at the Hector Russell ' Hillwalker'-an ideal balance between the traditional and the modern-with pockets and slightly less material.

    I find it ideal for day to day wear.

    Buckle system

    All of my kilts use the three buckle system, and pockets.

    Hope I can finish this post before my keyboard shorts out from drool and slobber...

    Steve, Robert, Rocky....ahhhhhhh circuits shorting out!! Its all tooooo gooood!!

    If I remember, the Hillwalker is a tad pricy.

    I too am dreaming of a "halfbreed" kilt. A tartan with side pockets.

    Steve, I'm drooling to see your X Marks with pockets...Semper Fi

    Robert, How could I ever buy anything but leather from you buddy??

    Rocky, I'm just trying to forget I ordered so I'll be surprised when it arrives.

    Didn't Jimmy say that side pockets could be added by a talented needlesmith? Don't think I could do that myself...

    Haven't seen Jeff around in a while, my PKs have side pockets...

    I'm so hopelessly addicted have even thought about buying some WalMart tartan cloth and gluing it onto a UK Mocker....

    Shorting out now....

    Hey Josh,

    You must have posted while I was composing...interesting...went to your site took a while to figure out the email for price part. Couldn't find what "washable fabric" really was...? Look forward to your gallery being up.

    Jeez...lengthen the wish list....

    It's okay, Ron. Just breathe deep and relax.
