Well, I love 'em. What got me to kilts was seeing a Utilikilt at a Ren Faire. Just had to have one....and I did...and off to the kilt races went this olde geezer. Eventually tried tartan kilts and leather kilts....I've owned 18 Utilikilts over the last ten years or so. Early on they had some quality problems but those seem long ago ironed out. My favorite is the Survivor with all the pockets. Its a great kilt for hiking and flying. One trick is to take the snap pockets off to run through the X ray at the airport. If you walk through the beeper thingie sideways you may avoid the follow up wanding.
My worry at age 69 is I'd look silly in them. I still own three. I've "outgrown" the others and churned them. They do hold their value well and I've been able to sell them to other guys my size and use the proceeds for more kilts.
Here's a pic of the Survival I have now...decide if it works for an olde guy.
Think they call this pattern Desert Digital camo. Hope that helps a bit.
