TIA!
Al,
I don't know about Buzz Kidder canvas kilts, but I have tried softening several of my Workman's Utilikilts (which are close to canvas, I imagine) by adding fabric softener like crazy when washing them. We have 'Lenore' and 'Comfort' proprietory brands of softener here (I know of no others), but neither seems to have any effect.
The best way to soften these kilts seems to be to wear them - rather like denim, I suppose!!!!
