    How much do you have to spend? I would definitely check with Alan H. The navy poly/cotton material he made my XKilt from was great stuff and very cheap. Keeps pleats very well, and an XKilt is fairly simple to make. If you want help making, as opposed to buying them, send me a PM.

    Go to Carr Textiles www.carrtextiles.com They are located in Fenton, MO and this is where I get some of my fabrics.
    In the fabrics section look for the 7 - 7.5 oz Poly/Cotton Twill.
    It kilts up quite well. Resists wrinkling very well. Is resonable in price (even though you may have to pay $10.00 for a roll-down).
    Super nice folks.

    If you're in a hurry and really need them for 2007 rather than '08 SportKilt makes their Boulder model in Navy Blue...but says they're custom and take 2-4 weeks. $125 a pop, but maybe a way to get it done.

    I know....
