Lesson Learned.
On Friday I received my fixed SK ACU kilt.
It is not fixed.
My wife is furious about this. I am not pleased. The only "repair" that I can see is that the apron was made narrower at the bottom. The gap has not been affected.
The elastic in the waist band bunches at the beltline. The pleats are not crisp.
Today I will go to a local seamstress to see if I can have fixes & modifications made. I want the gap made less apparent, the elastic removed and the pleats stitched sharp.
Why am I going through this effort? I actually like the way it wears. It feels GOOD. I like the light weight, length and the camo pattern. If I can have this fixed locally I will be content enough; but if it isn't possible, I'll return it and get an SWK standard.
FYI, I have not been able to post pics on this site.
I am done with Sport Kilt.
