I get so much use out of the Utilikilts, even for more formal events. Last week, for an annual dinner, the black Survival (without the detachable pockets), with black socks, red flashes, red shirt with black tie, attracted very favourable comments. Most people there would have seen me in either tartan kilts or Utilikilts. Earlier in the year, the same kilt and socks, but with white shirt and red tie was well regarded when I sang at a church event.
People are not familiar with plain-colour kilts so may be expected to react differently when they see one, when they imagine all kilts are tartan.
As an aside, I was amused when wearing a tan Utilikilt Original to be asked by a lady "I've been admiring your skirt. Is it a military kilt?

I don't know about plain colored kilts, but I own a solid green and a solid saffron wool kilt but these are traditional kilts and different from a Utilikilt or a utility style kilt.
