    In my opinion, please put your $26 in the bank and save up for the real thing.
    After reading the associated threads here, I'm inclined to agree.

    What qualifies it as a kilt anyway? Not a real tartan and no pleats. Definitely a skirt and not a very attractive one at that.

    Guys, lets not open this can of worms. The Tripp Kilt may not be your (or my) style, but there is really nothing to be gained by trashing it. It does in fact have pleats. Some forumites own one, or have younger family members that do.

    Gauranga, some of the biggest meltdowns on this forum have been over the definition of the kilt. If you wish to explore the issue, I advise using the search feature, or send me a pm, and I'll provide a link to one such 13-page thread that was eventually locked down.

    Best regards,

    Jake

    It looks like it's more for a punk look than anything. (Not trashing it, just sayin.)
