Can't be a man without them pleats eh?

I have one. Quality is very good. Stride is not a problem at all. It's cool and breezy - just what you need on a hot sweaty hike. Yes it's a skirt. So is a kilt. (Get over it)

I'm surprised and a little disappointed that folks who have never seen or tried this item would make such unfounded disparaging pronouncements about it. Sounds quite disingenuous to me.

This item will never replace a kilt, and it is not meant to. It is however a very comfortable garment for the back yard, backpacking, and long car trips.

Take my word for it. I own one.

Cheers,
Rick
