    Now tight jeans are not a possibility (for one thing, I don't own any ).

    This would be more along the lines of very comfortable, loose fitting, stylish pants.

    Does that change your summary at all?

    Graham,

    What about the Green Tights? With or without the dried cod piece.

    Each to his own, Graham. Each to his own! There is absolutely no way, I would wear jeans, tight or otherwise for flying or any other activity. Mind you, I'd be very hard pushed indeed to wear those s----s anywhere else!!

    I think most kilt would stand up to being sat upon for hours if the pleats were arranged properly. The problem is getting the pleats arraged to prevent the wrinkles.
    Hamish is right about airplane travel. Those seats must be a bugger to get your pleats aligned in. If you can get them right, no problem. If you can't, your kilt will wrinkle, no matter what fabric is is made from.

    Right, Bear, and I will not go wrinkled anywhere - even coming off a plane. We don't do wrinkles!

    having said that, my 4 yard bear kilt looks ok after 8-9 hrs drivin' a taxi.but I do try n swish the pleats in line with my hand as I sit down.not as easy in those cramped airplane seats.
