    Some time ago one of the members here (can't remember who!) posted pics of his new US Army kilt. I saved the pics, 'cause I want to get one eventually.

    Anyways, his is pleated to the stripe military fashion. I think it looks great:

    I agree with Woodsheal, I like this pleating. Pleating with no stripe kind of reminds me of a lawn chair. But that is just my opinion, I really like pleating to a stripe that makes the back look completely different from the front, it is pretty cool.
