    Man, I need one of those. I am really not looking forward to competing in the Highland games wearing my one and only tank. In fact Im down right not wanting to do it! I wish I had more time to borrow one from someone who lived around here or something...If I get it messed up- its mah ***! My wife will kill me...literally. My only saving grace is, I work in avaition and have access to some really powerful degreasers and appolstery cleaners that won't damage it...hopefully won't be nessessary. =?

    I added a pic to the first post.

    I threw the new Sport Kilt on (was wearing a tank) to take the picture and ended up wearing it today because it's just so comfortable. I'll be buying more of these in different tartans (heads up Seamus!), but I think next time I am going to upgrade to the fringed panel and straps because it just looks so much better as seen with this same tartan in fluter's post.

    That was a "works" model. Just for the record, I removed the straps from that one! Sorta defeats the advantage of Velcro. I have vacillated about the various add-on options, I think I like the belt loops and the stitched-down pleats. Fringe could go either way, but it was very nicely executed on my MacGregor SK.

    The new side pockets are pretty nifty, for a kicking around the house and yard kilt!

    Ah, thank you very much, now I know what to order from now on. I've never been a fan of velcro but this was intended to be an "around the house" kilt so it works. I will definitely look into other options - though I am glad I opted for the sewn-down pleats.
