I had several SportKilts that I have since sold because I wanted some kilts with more weight that I could wear all year. I always had ordered them with sewn down pleats and belt loops. With the sewn down pleats, and with belt loops so that you can wear a belt and hide the elastic, they look good, and are quite nice for summer wear.

I know I got lots of compliments, especially from ladies when I wore mine. I found that the polyblend material held pleats quite well with very little wrinkling or creasing. But for cooler weather they are a bit light - especially in the back.

I always thought of that small pocket between the aprons, as a place wear you could stash some cash, or a seldom used credit card - something that you did not need to get to except in an emergency.
