    Wrinkle Free Casual After a Long Day's Wear

    So, I wear my new Prince of Wales tartan casual to the conference in Tucson. This means I don the kilt at 7:30 am and from 8 am through 5 pm I'm sitting in it. Then I'm out to dinner and the ice cream store with the grandkids.

    Figure I'm in the kilt about 13 hours.

    Now I have a gut that usually wrinkles the front of my kilts. I'm careful about sweeping when I sit, but I did a LOT of sitting in different venues.

    So, last night I finally take of the kilt and get out my trusty Black and Decker Gizmo to steam the wrinkles out....and there are no wrinkles to steam out??!!

    Go figure.

    I'm not saying the USA Kilts casual won't wrinkle - because they will, not bad, but some....I'm just saying that somehow, someway, this kilt didn't after a long day of use.

    I've been thinking of asking how well those USAKS hold up to a long day of sitting. It seems they do very well indeed. Thanks for the post, you answerd a question I hadn't gotten around to asking yet.
    Armageddon was yesterday. Today we have real problem.
