    Just to give you some inspiration ----

    ACU Digital




    Pink Death-the official flamingo hunters Tartan.



    Blue Urban



    Pink Death again - Just 'cause I couldn't resist.



    6 Color Desert Camo



    And an entire family of 6 color desert - Don't put your camo kilt in a closet. They breed like rabbits.



    And 3 color desert



    Plain jane Woodland



    Another 6 color desert. This time pleated to "The Leaf".



    One of only 12 Canadian CADPAT kilts ever made.



    I guess I've made kilts in just about ever Camo pattern out there. I currently have perhaps the largest selection of Camo of any Kiltmaker.
    And yes, my MARPAT Arid and Temperate are actual MILSPEC fabrics.
    Although I sometimes make kilts with wider pleats I don't copy the Utilikilt styling with the narrow apron and the reverse kingussie pleats. Mine are actual kilts based on a traditional with my signature Contemporary manufacturing. So perhaps this is not what you are looking for.

    While I do not have any camo designs, I do have three utility kilts from UT Kilts - in khaki, olive and black denim. I wear them all frequently, like them just fine and I only have about $200 invested in them all, including shipping. What's also good (for me) is that my wife also likes them, with the olive being her favorite. Bryce provides great customer service, fast shipping and is responsive to email questions.

    If you are too busy to laugh, you are too busy.

    Thank you for the info! I have been looking for a camp kilt and had not had a lot of luck. Seems UT Kilts have them and they appear to be a quality as well as adjustable.

    Pleated to the leaf

    Bad bad bad boys of XMarks
    You are all a terrible influence on me.... I really have to try that 'pleated to the leaf' it calls to me in ways I can't mention.
    Are the under pleats huge to make the pattern work or did you luck out with a fabric that made it easy?

    Sigh more kilts to work on!

    No Lady Grey it was not planned. It just turned out that way. It was a fluke of the Sett size that I chose based on the characteristics of this fabric and the size of the repeat of the Camo pattern.

    In fact we did not even notice it ourselves until the kilt was almost finished. We were sort of concerned that the customer would take objection to a repeating Camo pattern. The whole idea of Camo is that it breaks up sharp edges, straight lines and repeating elements. Things which don't often occur in nature.

    But "pleated to the leaf" just slides off the tongue so well.
