I said this, this past January. Five kilts later, 4 sporrans (including the SWK Nightstalker - very good BTW I'll highly recommend.) Hose galore, 6 belts, 3" on the waist...
It may seem like a good idea, let's meet some of the rabble. Don't you see? The next kilt night you have to show up in something new. "What Streetcar has a new kilt? Look he's getting all the attention, I'll show him"...
"...Hello Mr Newsome, yes, I'd like a new Ilse of Skye box pleat, credit card number is..."

Well, you all did warn me that this would be addictive, but I don't mind

I have one and am completely addicted to the convenience of the zipper top and front velcro flap pocket. No fumbling with drawstrings or magnets. Wish they made a brown/tan nylon too. Wish they made a leather in brown and in black...hearing/reading there's one coming. I sure hope so.
What's weird is the preference just evolved naturally from using the thing. Its more functional for me anyway.
Only down side, as much as I wear it its starting to show wear, but at that price can just buy a new one. Only other down side, wear it with a regular leather sporran strap. Or do they even send a nylon "strap?"
And the color is sort of wearing off the leather on the tassels...but no biggie. Just use a Sharpie to recolor.
You done good to order one and you'll soon see why the rest of us are so addicted to it.
