I wear my four SKs (tan cotton/poly, two tartan poly/vis and a hiker) around town all the time, in fact, I wouldn't wear anything else for shopping, walking the dog, after cycling...
Thanks for that! I like SK, and feel a deep sense of gratitude to them for getting me into a kilt in the first place. I now own three SKs, one of which is a "works," a few UK originals, and a non-wool black watch or unknown provenance (but bought from an X-Marker, thanks!).
For someone still trying to sort out where he likes the waist to fall, or someone who lives in the hot & sweaty Mid-Atlantic (in the summer), or someone with a baby that (sorry, folks, it just happens) spits up on your kilt just about every other day, you can't beat an SK; at least that's my current thinking.
That said, of course, my wish list is as long as my arm, and it will take a while to get through it at its current length! And who knows, when I get those more expensive kilts on my list (and the little one is a little less gross), maybe those SKs will just be for gardening and housework, but not yet.
