So I wear a kilt everyday. I wear it to work(stone mason), lounging at home, or out on the town. I've tried a few different styles, and my favourite isn't one particular kilt, but elements of all of them. And since I don't have the extra cash to get a bunch custom made, I decided to try my hand at one.
This kilt is denim and cotton/synthetic blend.-I know, I know, but this is machine washable and dryer friendly.
The pleats are 2inches denim with 8inches of 'tartan'(2"/4"/2") for a nice swish and double pleats for each apron.
The pleats edges are sewn down so there's no real need to iron or press it
Cargo pockets on each side with pockets inside the kilt instead of hanging on the outside.
A 12 inch tapered apron (1/3 waist) a blend of utility kilt and more traditional.
And it's tapered from the seat(36) to my waist(33) with the pleats sewn down for the top 1/3.
A bit of a mixed bag, but I think it turned out really nicely.
Any tips/pointers/advice would be appreciated. And if I messed something up, please let me know lol.
