My first kilt is/was a sportkilt. it's ok as a first kilt I guess, but judging on it so far, I wouldn't buy another.

I'm scared to wash it, as I'm quite sure the pleats won't hold much longer anyway. I'm considering sewing them down.

I plan on getting a stillwater next, then probalby holding out for a true tank. For the money, I'm guessing stillwater is a much better deal, though I've not seen one up close. Just not satisfied with what the sportkilt is, compared to what the stillwater seems to be. I'll have to wait and see I guess.
