Sewing the inside pleats of AmeriKilt?? Became removing UK seams
Been wearing my AmeriKilt tiger stripe camo into the ground...goes well with a USMC t-shirt or tank in the summer heat.
Finally washed it. Hanging it up I'm noticing that the inside pleats aren't sewn, just folded.
Got to wondering if it would help or hurt to tack them down or sew them down. There are 15 inside "pleats" for my size. Don't wanna change the swing or the hang...but shouldn't be a problem to do it if it would improve the hang of it.
Suggestions/feedback appreciated.
And, an afterthought about AmeriKilt "sporrans"...I really like how they look with a contrast rather than a match. I'll wear my putty (War 2 Khaki) with my tiger stripe and vice versa. Same for my Pittsburgh Kilt camos..
For me, makes more of a "sporran" statement if they're more visible.
