    I took the size tag off of mine so, I couldn't even tell which side I was "supposed" to wear it on.

    You raise an interesting question though. I wonder if by pleating to the one side it automatically pleated itself to the other line on the reverse side, or if they did it on purpose. All i know for sure though, is I definitely like that i have the option to wear it either way. It wasn't even me that noticed that it could be wore reversed. I had noticed both the sides being pleated different, but i thought because of the velcro that it wouldn't be able to be worn in reverse, but the way they position the velcro it works perfectly.

    I'm going to guess that they do it on purpose, but it's probably an accidental pleating benefit. The other 3 kilts i have though, don't reverse like this one does. I just don't know. Oh well, I like it!

    Because of consistent pattern of tartan this is just a fringe benefit. Any kilt pleated consistently will do this, It's just that many kilts have a liner on the inside so you would not be able to reverse them without showing the liner. I guess you could call it a short, protective apron if you wanted to
