    New Spartan UK

    Just wondering if anyone else has seem this new product.

    Imagine a pair of long basketball shorts cut up the middle sown into a kilt with marginal pleats. The material is like the satin gym pants that are popular these days, but it is relatively translucent and wouldn't hold up(well, down) in a light breeze.

    I couldn't see wearing one anywhere but around the house, but at that price point ($100) I don't think I could stomach it.

    I've seen several and I cant wait to get mine. No, its not a kilt for normal wear, its a kilt for kilt wearers to take to the gym or out for a run. It looks like it will be good for around the house too. (I can retire the Sportkilt then)

    The jersey material is actually pretty heavy and it drapes really well, so it doesnt fly up much. I'd say you have less to worry about in a breeze than you do in a sportkilt.

    I'd love to, but unfortunately all the ones I have seen have been real life prototypes. According to the UK newsletter though they shoud be available soon. (How long? I've been waiting months)
