Kilts in the Wind
So today, taking pics of my new white/natural Utilikilt workman's we hiked over to the edge of Glen Canyon. It was windy and there was a great updraft coming up the face of the canyon walls.
These pics were caught when the kilt apron went flying. For those of you worried about accidental wind exposure you can see that only the outer apron went flying, the underapron and the snaps protected what modesty I have left after years of wild living.
The black thing you see is the infamous J'Dez underkilt worn for hiking comfort with a new workman's still being broken in.
Point is to those who are worried about the wind, there's nothing to worry about, at least in a UK workman's. Seems the more pleated kilts would be less of a worry.
And keep in mind this was a strong updraft, not a horizontal wind. If any wind was gonna lift my kilts this one would.

In this pic, the apron is practically saluting...yet no exposure.
