P. S. Get new straps at http://www.highlandxpress.com/bucklestraps.html or from SWK. The pros seem to think Highland Xpress is the place to buy, so listen to them.

Indeed. The straps are really the only down side to the kilt. They are brittle and hard to buckle, as a matter of fact they are already breaking apart after three wearings!
