I have two kilts (both camo) with front pockets. One FK and one RKilts custom job. I love the fact that I can slip things in there, cigs, lighter, wallet change, cell phone. Not too bulky items are hidden by my slight beer gut (read Molson Muscle) and helps with a surprising amount of room. It also freaks people out when it seems that I produce something out of thin air. If I had my way all my kilts would have these, so much easier than fumbling around in a sporran. I was concerned that standing around with my hands in my pockets might stretch the canvas but a couple of years of standing around casualy this hasn't happened. Such is Steve's design and quality.
