Surely someone has ordered from them?

I played with the idea of making hemp kilts for a while. There are a lot of different weights, weaves, and qualities of hemp, none of which I found would hold a pleat without the fabric also having a big tendency to wrinkle.
The Hilt may have solved this. I've not seen a Hilt, so I can't speak about them. I know their kilt prices are far below what hemp fabric cost in North America.
