Ya Gotta Love Poly Viscose Kilts On The Road
So Friday I'm at work at 0800 in my USA Kilts Casual Gordon Red kilt.
I worked until 3PM then drove two hours through the snow to Flagstaff - still wearing the kilt. Linked up with my lady and we went out to dinner, me still in the Gordon Red kilt.
Somewhere about 9PM I took off the kilt and found I'd neglected to bring a hanger to hang it up on. I'd been sitting on the kilt for most of the past thirteen hours, wanted to let it hang out some. But no way.
So, folded the waist in half then folded it in half again lengthwise, like Rocky does for shipping, and put it in my travel bag. It bounced around in there for another two days and 600 some miles.
Late this afternoon I got home, unpacked it, hung it up, and it hardly was wrinkled. Took about one minute of touch up with the Gizmo steamer and it was lookin' good.
