Its ALL wrong for what you asked, and they don't make it anymore, but the old natural white Utilikilts Workman's would have made a nice "warmup" kilt or practice kilt. Would probably need to be bleached a bit whiter than it comes.
I believe Ham has one in his collection too.

Thanks Ron,
Yes Indeed I do have a white Workman's Utilikilt (now with some leeching from the dye in the brown leather straps, but still wearable!), and I love it to bits!
Here's a piccie of me wearing it in HM The Queen's back garden at Buckingham Palace three years ago:
I agree, if it were still available, it probably would require some bleaching to meet with EBA regulations. Mine was/is rather more cream than white.
