Our local dry cleaners press the kilt as well (of course) and they charge BY THE PLEAT. It's a $1.00 a pleat. I was going to get my Stillwater dry-cleaned, but then after learning that it'd be a $38.00 dry cleaning and pressing bill for a $70 kilt I decided the washing machine would be the ticket.

There is a wool kilt in my future, though, so I'm watching this topic with interest.
