Has anyone here bought this kilt?

I saw this kilt after doing a Google search-

I like the look and the fact it has pockets but am unsure about the material.

Any comments?

I don't have one of those kilts, however I do own a Black Denim Union Kilt which I have had for about four years now. If this is a copy of the Union Kilt as they say then it is going to be very hard to beat at the price.

Don't forget to let us know what you think if you do buy one of these.

Have fun (and welcome to our corner of the internet),

I have the denim Union Kilt in navy blue and light blue. Very comfortable and practical and I wear them a lot. The only criticism I have is that the outer of the narrow overlapping front aprons tends to flap open like a woman's wrap skirt on a windy day, so if it is going to be breezy you need to wear an underskirt with this kilt for modesty. You could always make one from an old tee-shirt cut off at the bottom of the armpits and sewed onto an old Jockey waistband or buy a "Kilt Liner" which are usually available on eBay (no need to borrow the wife's frillies )

I added a small press stud (snap fastener) to the aprons about three inches below crotch height to fix this problem. It works perfectly and because there id plenty of movement built into the pleating of a kilt even a very long stride does not pull the fastener open. I would not usually fasten it (too lazy!) unless there is a need to do so. Cost was about 50p plus ten minutes with a needle and thread.

With other garments that need additional modesty or that are a pain to wash I use a slip. Marks and Spencers sell some cheap ones with no lacy trim just simple plain silky nylon. they wash and dry easily and are a good alternative to cotton kilt liners that I often find too warm. I would recommend taking a tape measure if you go to buy one as they give a length on the label that bears no resemblance to the actual length of the garment (I suspect it is meant to indicate the length of skirt to wear it with).

Have fun,
