    Yes indeed!

    That uber-heavy Canadian kilt I used to wear back in the 70s was so stiff that I could buckle it and stand it up on its own. Amazing. I called it the horse-blanket kilt.

    Yes, I do make, repair and alter military box pleated kilts.

    But I'm sure that Robert MacDonald of West Coast Kilts is an expert at military kilts. Steve, too, of course!
