    I'm sitting here reading this review in (as far as I know) the only undyed/natural hemp RKilt. They are very nice, aren't they?

    Like Dread and Graham, my pleats aren't perfect. But for everyday wear I don't have anything better. And when going hiking through the snow with the dog for an hour in 4ºF, it's just as warm as my 16 oz. box pleat (and I'm less concerned about snagging it on thorns).

    Green hemp?! Where? What have you heard?

    I was just wishing for green, no word on it. Robert is always on the lookout for new colours (note the 'proper' spelling)

    There may be a sorta blue coming out.

    I agree, Robert is the king of contemporary kilts IMHO. (mind you, an unhappy first experience with UK didn't help).
    I like hemp mostly because it doesn't need 350 washings in a cement mixer to soften it, it's soft and cuddly right away (like me).

    OK we have to get this thread locked down. I just ordered a pv and won't be able to afford one of Robert's kilts for some months.
