    No Kilted Distance Swimming

    Definitely don't swim in the kilt. it will cause too much drag. It will wear you out
    The Sport KLT is easy to roll up and stick in a ziplock waterpoof bag.
    I have used a small daypack with a couple of heavy duty ziplock bags with kilt, towel. etc. for adventure race swims to islands etc.

    Well, I've done a bit of swimming in my UK survival ( cargo pockets removed) and it is fine. No problems, and the kilt size doesn't drag too much. I wouldn't swim the atlantic in it, but some good fun can definitly be had swimming in a kilt!
