I bought my Mountainkilt back in 2004. At that time MountainGear described it as a men’s garment. Since then they have started calling it a unisex garment. It has no pleats, as you can see from the picture.
It is extremely comfortable to wear, however, and is much better suitable for car driving than is a pleated garment. That said, I’m not wearing it very often, perhaps because it might not exactly be what you – and people around - call a kilt.
