Transporting a kilt

I use a yoga mat bag, their quite inexpensive and work really well. They are usually nylon and protect the kilt as well. Your local Walmart should have a good selection.

Over time I have followed various threads that pop up on this subject and had not seen this suggestion before. Interesting, I will have to check this out as I am not all familiar with these bags.

Pour1Malt did a useful tutorial on using a stocking. It's in the "How to" section.

That's the method I use.

I use a Kilter. The kilt rolls up and the bag is easy to carry. Just returned to Toronto from a California wedding and the kilt stayed in great shape ( carry on) .

This is the same method that I use also. It is cheaper than a new piece of luggage, and I've sucessfully carried two kilts in this manner before. Just remember to take your time and keep the pleats as straight and un-rumpled as possible. As Matt said allow your kilt to hang for a bit once you reach your destination to allow the pleats to relax and release any small wrinkles that might have developed.
