I have a UT Kilt. It wears ok, but then again, i don't have a basis to compare to. The drop could stand to be longer but for the price what can you expect. I have had to make some fixes myself on the pockets as the stich came unraveled from the kilt. After loosing a few pounds, it slips on and off easy...too easy. I am planning on getting a new one, and then using this one as a model to make myown or have my mom, a seamstress, bring it in a little bit. I washed mine once in the last 6 months and the pockets started to fall apart and that was going by the companies care instructions.
I guess if one needed a kilt in utility kilt in a pinch and on the cheap, this would work...for a mud run, costume, or play. But for working in or everyday wear, i would recommend spending a few more bucks and find something that can withstand everyday use.

I bought one earlier this year. It has held up pretty well. It fits me just fine. I got the khaki but thought it was a little too light in color so I dyed it a darker shade of khaki. Usually if something in the construction is bad it fails during a dye job (lots of heat and churning). Nothing came apart, frayed, or unstitched. For the money, it isn't a bad kilt.

Bought an OD UTKilt from Brice this summer and wore it in truly nasty Chicago heat-humidity. Fabric and weight are appropriate there for.
No complaints for the price, tho the just-arrived 5:11 Tactical Duty Kilt may be a mite "better."
