Tripp kilts are VERY lightweight. I too have the all black version. (and yes they are a tad long, but look at the pic of the guy wearing the black one, it's definately below his navel) Because it's very light I find it perfect for a night of dancing in a sweaty nightclub. Also, the amount of chrome hardware on the kilt give it a very "punk rock" look. I got my on sale from Hottopic and only paid 50 bucks for it, and that included the shipping.
The Tripp kilts are one dimensional, by that I mean that they are not a very versatile garment at all. While I can wear an AK or UK in while doing
many different activities, the Tripp is only functional in certain situations.
But hey....if was cheap and does exactly what I bought it for.
I tried to take a pic of the back to show you the pleats but it's just too black. My attempt at lightening it up with photoshop didn't help much either. Anyway, like I said above, it has very limited wearability. If you can get it cheap than go for it. If not, and you plan on buying a kilt you can wear alot of ways, then it's probably not the kilt for you.
