    Hey NC

    Robin has a solid point with the pockets. Depending upon what type of work you plan on doing kilted you may need tools. Utilikilt Workman's has nice pockets and loops for tools. RKilt and Freedom Kilt have tool pockets as well, but ones that you can ask to have customized to need. If its a true work kilt its gonna have some signs of work on it.

    I've three Utilikilt Workman's and I'd venture to say they'd outlive dozens of inexpensive kilts and/or aprons.

    I prefer value.

    Remember, in the marketplace you can have any two of price, quality, or service.

    I wouldn't worry too much about staining. A Black UK, RK, Union Kilt hids a multitude of sins. I have worn a kilt doing plumbing, carpentry, electrical work. The only thing I don't do is paint, and I keep an old pair of jeans for that. The only one of my kilts that I have managed to stain is the carmel duc (Carhardt) UK, but it is a really light color to begin with, and has seen the most action work wise.
