Now, if you did that with a full chain sporran, you'd accelerate/exacerbate the problem on a grand scale.
hmm... really, that is interesting! I was thinking of a small ringged aluminum for more of a dress look.
but you know, I really don't have a great kilt, its actually mostly cotton...
thanks for the warning!
