Little holes in my UK Kilts? Silence on the UK Board
Posted this on the UK board and all I've got is a few suggestions on how to cope with the problem. NOTHING from the UK HQ folks who usually are active on that board. So, brought it over here. Maybe someone here can tell me what makes those rows of holes in my UKs?
Aggrevating to watch them grow for the money paid for the UKs...
The silence from UK HQ is even more aggrevating.
Appreciate any info from those in the know.

This is the UK Board post:
Been meaning to ask this. Think I've seen some comments about it,
but never an explaination.
When I hang my Utilikilt survivals and workman's up to dry there are
clearly two lines of little holes right on each pleat seam, both
outside and inside seams. One row is about three inches above the
hem, the other row is about six inches above that.
It looks like the factory laid the kilt out and ran it through some
machine that puts a double row of holes in the kilt seams.
The more the kilts are washed, the more those little holes seem to
fray and become more obvious.
Anybody know why they are there and how they get there? It seems a
really stupid thing to do to a quality product.
Thanks,
Ron
