    Buy one and replace the straps. That's no big deal, but the kilt is a real bargain, especially if you wear one in the cold. I almost guarantee you won't be cold. (I hesitate to actually guarantee since some folks are cold natured, and I'm not.)

    You can still wear it with the straps that come with it--I still do--but I hate them and curse them, their designers, their makers, and all the forebears of the whole group!

    But that is one killer of a kilt for about 300 bucks.
