Anyway, I'm looking forword ro see if anything holds up to that abuse.

I was going to suggest (before lockage) that Chris have his wife/significant other study one of his kilts and make cheap ripoffs of heavy canvas and heavy duty thread (double stitched).

Anyone know of any plaid/tartan canvas for sale?
Thanks, man. Actually Peggy is an excellent seamstress, just too busy working. It's not so much the tearing up of the kilt as it is the amount of dirt, grime and the like. Also, the heat here in Texas is suffocating ... my kilts so far have proved to be a bit hot on the legs. SportKilt thinks that their microfiber material usually used in their new Hiking Kilt is well worth a try. I'll be sure to let folks know how they work out.

Kilt On.
