Absolutely. Especially when it's a 'hard' material like duck cloth, and has a bottom stitched hem. And it's not just the backs of the knees that will get irritated. The fronts too. That inside edge of the hem will rub up and down on the kneecap as you walk. As much hiking as I do in my Utilikilt, I learned that lesson pretty quickly. It's not that it ever really becomes a painful show-stopper like a heel blister, but it's just annoying. So wearing a utility-style kilt high when doing a lot of walking or running is simply good sense. And when I say high, I mean high enough over the top of the knee where it's not an issue.
