Sportkilts have been made from different materials over time and some of their fabrics have been prone to pilling. After wearing mine for a few years it was getting really pilley and I sent them an inquiry about it. They said they have moved towards materials that are more resistant to pilling, but they still had some of the old fabric mine was made from and would replace it. I sent back my Sportkilt and they sent me a brand new one, free of charge! Granted, it's in that older fabric and will eventually pill again, but it should last a good while and they don't stock my clan tartan in their newer material. I'm very happy with the customer service from Sportkilt, which is a point in their favour.
