In my own mind I can think of how I might make side, slash pockets, but I have to admit, how to make an internal back pocket has me stumped. Honestly, I'd probably just make an external pocket, like a pair of blue jeans, and maybe put some folds in it to mimic the box pleating. Then I'd tack it on the outside. A REAL internal rear pocket, I suspect, is a mess of detail work.
Alan, I think making a rear pocket would not be that difficult. You would want to sew an outline of the pocket opening in the fell area, cut out the material for the opening, flip the kilt (so the inside is facing out), and sew on a pouch pocket (similar to your cargo pockets, but minus the pleat) to kilt, and you can then sew a flap on if you wanted to.

I might try that in the near future.
