Well, having successfully graduated from high school and having some nice graduation cash and a set of practice bagpipes on the way, I have been considering purchasing a 2nd kilt.

my main issue is I've been leaning towards a Prince of Wales casual or semi-traditional USAK. I'm a little hung up on the Velcro vs. leather strap enclosures. I quite like the leather straps on my Stewart Black SWK standard. However I feel like being a little more frugal on a purchase and I do not need a formal kilt currently, just one for everyday wear. I am not sure whether or not the Velcro is good or not, and I'd like to know what any of your opinions are of the differences between the casual and semi-traditional.

All advice, observations, ideas are fully welcome. Thank you!
