RKilts Hemp Kilts - A Question

[Wompet]

This is directed at Canuck, but I thought I would put it here so everyone who's interested could see the answer, instead of doing a PM.

Out of curiousity, I checked out the site which shall not be named yesterday, and I saw a couple of posts about the hemp RKilts. I've been considering buying one, and the RKilts website hasn't been updated in a while (I'm sorry, but it hasn't), so I took a look. Now I have some questions:

What is the base price for a hemp RK, in $US or $CDN? (There's nothing listed on RKilts.com.) Or to put it a different way, how much should I bring with me when I go to the Hamilton Games?
What colors are available? Your site says black and off-white, but you said in the other place that you only had black available. The black did look good, but it wouldn't be my first choice.
If the off-white is available, do you have any pictures of it, either in finished kilt or unfinished fabric?
How do the "custom outer pockets" differ from the regular outer cargo pockets on the cargo pockets?

I have been a bad boy and haven't done all the updates but more importantly I will address the questions.
Base price for hemp $295 Canadian . American is getting awfully close.
Colour ; Black I can get a natural or off white but there hasn't been one request for it so I haven't made one.
Custom pockets differ only in the division of the pocket. On the outer pocket if you want it divided for say, a small notebook, pencils and a tire guage that would be custom.
Now as to how much should you bring to the Hamilton highland games...hmmm well oh all right for the kilt $295 plus GST of 7%(you will get that back when you cross the border or when it's delivered and $20-25 shipping.
I will have a sample hemp kilt at the games.
Regarding photos it's hard to tell from a photo hemp and denim from a distance they look similar.
Look forward to talking to you at the games

Thanks for the answers. Now I have to start squirrelling away money in the kilt fund. I'll see you at the games.

I'm still more than a little curious about the natural/off-white, so I went and found a picture of a swatch:

On my computer this shows up as a light gray, with maybe a touch of khaki. Is this what the off-white you're using looks like?
(I actually prefer this color, at least on the computer, to the black.)

good looking belts. what i understand is the chain belt can wear you kilt out with wear. the leather braded sporran belts look awsome. had to bookmark that page.

Sorry for the tardy reply I just got back from picking up my daughter from Queens in Kingston.
The off white is like unbleached canvas or like cream colour hose.
