I have one of Pete's Canadian Casual Kilts, and I would recommend one for daily, dirty wear. I just mentioned Stillwater first because LK-13 had already mentioned them, and it is only two weeks 'til Hamilton. Sorry, Pete. 
Kilted paintball ...  Could be interesting. Don't have a paintball gun though ... hmmm - the Scots used slingshots, didn't they?

well i guess i should have been a little more specific,
I'm actually in St.Catharines, but hey that's the Niagara region so it's all good.
as for Kilted paintball, I'm part of another forum over at www.undergroundmodshop.com and our Canadian contingent is looking at the whole lot of use playing in kilts, it's a very hot topic on the UMS forum.
it's generated 5 pages in just a very few days.
I've kinda made up my mind that I'm going to get an Economy Kilt and a Standard Kilt from SWK.
the idea being that i can play paintball in the E kilt and keep the S kilt for nights out and that kind of thing.
of course that means I'm going to have to invest in a Sporran and a ton of other accessories.
but sadly I'm not going to be able to make any of this happen until April at the earliest. you see my Bulldog "Marbles"

just got her shots updated and is on antibiotics for a minor bladder infection, but that has blown the budget for the rest of the month.

LK-13, there is another option in the x-kilt. A member here Alan-H (to give due credit) has designed a kilt to sew yourself using cheap material. Get four yards of camo poly/cotton for like $5.00 a yard if you get material wide enough can get two kilts out of. His design includes optional cargo pockets. This would be your best bet for paintball. Cheap machine washable and if it gets ruined, hay make a new one. Go to the link above, down load the booklet, 10 hours later Bob's yer uncle. Just say thanks to Alan and include pics.

(because of motorcycle crash back in 1988)
making my own Kilt isn't really an option.

Welcome to the neighborhood.
Marbles is a great looking Bulldog! We had one just like that in our barracks while in the Marine Corps. His name was Chesty (in honor of Chesty Puller). That Bulldog lived like a king.
