    Robert speaks encouragingly about hemp and is sending a sample and I'll let you know when the kilt arrives.

    Hi Grahm,

    I've also been looking for a work kilt and had pretty much decided on a UK Workman but believe I shall hold off ordering until you conclude your testing, especially on the hemp kilt.

    If a kemp kilt has similar qualities to the 3 kemp shirts I have, I'd be all for it! I bought 3 kemp shirts last year from a local sports & camping goods store & frankly, they're my favorite shirts - very comfortable, durable & while they do wrinkle a little (more so when they were new), they wrinkle far less than 100% cotton. Add that to the ecological & health reasons already mentioned by Pleater & Robert &... well, I'm convinced that (cue the music) what the world needs now, is hemp, sweet hemp...

    Graham,

    You did not specify if you want tool hanger straps, pockets for specific tools, or any other modifications.

    Would a Cargo Model Freedom Kilts with Straps and buckles(vs buttons), Side Slash & Cargo pockets work or do you need something added?
