boulder kilt

**michael steinrok** · 11th May 06, 08:25 PM

Sport kilt has a kilt called the boulder. They use the military twill fabric. It has belt loops sewn down pleats. I'm curious does any one have one or seen one? The cost is good. I work in the trades and it would be nice to have a light weight for the summer.

Yes, I have a woodland camo Boulder. It is very light weight and wrinkles easily, but I also find it rather comfortable. I've decided that it will be my summer yardwork kilt.

Regards,
Rex in Cincinnati.

Is it tough?What's the deal with the wrinkles? Do they smooth themselves out with wearing?

I wouldn't say I'd describe mine as particularly tough, but it's not going to self-destruct, either. And the wrinkles don't shake themselves out. I am only speaking of my woodland camo; I don't know if the other solids perform any differently.

I sent them some Army Digital Camo material, and they made a Boulder out of it for me. It's not quite a UK, but it's pretty good.

Well dang, how'd you pull off the special deal?

I asked to send my two old style gathered SportKilts back to have them reworked into the newer sewn down pleat, custome length, belt buckle version and they said no way.

Maybe if I "unsewed" it myself and told them I had the fabric to send....?

Yes, I'm jealous....

Sorry - guess I'm stealing the thread...

I've got a cammo boulder and love it. It looks really good, very sharp. I press and starch mine and wear it out and about. It does wrinkle, but no worse than any other solid or cammo kilt I have. Between an 'Original' Utilikilt and the Boulder, I have both, the Boulder is much, much cooler and lighter to wear, looks as good, holds up as good.

Thanks for the feedback Chris,

Didn't realize the Boulder was so light. My UK camo original is one of the lightest kilts I own...hard to imagine anything lighter. Should be great for the hot weather here too.
