I have three sportkilts. One I bought, the other two given to me. I wear them around the house and such, but I wouldn't wear them out for anything. For a good and economical kilt, checkout Jeff at Pittsburgh kilts. Here is the link, as well as a link to a casual kilt company list:

Jeff offers a black kilt for $110.00 as well as a lot of nice options which increase the price a little.
