Unsorted Facts, Q&A and a Review from the UK board:
Assorted Facts:
Spartans are currently on the rack, and shipping.
They are pleated with UKs Patented Symmetrical Pleating System, but the
waistband is 3 inch wide and elastic, with a drawstring. Just like pro
Boxer's trunks. The UK "Six Snap" logo is center front on the waistband
(just like Boxer's trunks), and there are two vertical silver stripes
from the hip to the hemline on both sides, on all three colors.
Inside, there is a "floating apron" which is connected at the
waistband, and hangs loose inside the kilt in front of your johnson.
This provides another layer of fabric to decrease your... erm...
"profile" in front. ;-)
The only pocket is a small zippered pocket over the right butt cheek,
where you can keep some cash or a credit card, house/car keys, and
condoms. The bare necessities!
The overall look of the kilt is sleek and sporty, and the shiny fabric
gives it a feeling of being just slightly flashy, too.
We have photos of it now, and those will be appearing on the website
soon.
Spartan.....
Here's the size break down for the Spartans.
Sm = 30-33
Md = 34-37
Lg = 38-41
Xl = 42-46
2x = 47-52
3x = 53-60
Base price is $95, they have the traditional UK sewn pleats just
attached to an elastic waistband. Sizes run Small, Med, Large,
XLarge, and then the normal 21.5, 23. 24.5 lengths.
Q & A from UK board:
QUESTION: What colors do they come in? And if the material is so light
weight, won't the slightest wind cause you to have a Marilyn Monroe
monent?
ANSWER: I'd noticed in mine this weekend that because the material is also
somewhat sheer the wind just passes through it. It still will blow
around a bit but when I jumped off the back of my truck with it, it
ballooned no more than any of my other kilts of the way down. Because
the wind can go right through the material it doesnt have as much push.
REVIEW from UK board:
So whats a Spartan?
A Spartan is like wearing pure naked bliss. Its awesome. I got mine
Saturday as I worked Long Beach Pride, and it was worth the wait (not
that I havent been bugging them for it for several months)
Elastic waistband with a draw string, step in variety not the familiar
wrap and snap. It has the trademark six snaps on the front apron but
they are for looks only, just sort of deadhead snaps to dress it up.
The material is a super lightweight nylon, SUPER lightweight. Very
very finely meshed. You cant see the holes of the mesh but they let
every little bit of breeze through on a hot day.
Current models have one, right side rear pocket with a zipper, just
perfect for stashing your house key, I.D., and maybe a couple bucks
cash as you head out for a jog.
Now one of the coolest things about the Spartan is the inside flap it
has. Try to stay with me as I explain it. Right inside the front of
the waistband, just under the centered UK logo on the waistband is a
strip of the material about 4 inches wide and just a few inches
shorter than the length of the kilt. Its free hanging except for
where it is attached at the very top. Now, where you to grab your
apron and lift it up, 'exposing' yourself what would really happen is
that the fabric strip would still be hanging directly between your
legs providing cover. Same deal if you happened to be sitting on the
quad sled machine at the gym and bent your knees on the downstroke.
That little strip is going to prevent you from getting your gym
membership revoked and criminal charges filed.
I've got the red right now and its hot. Sort of a maroon/burgundy
color, a nice dark red. Its also available in black and a bright
green. Now only if they had royal blue... (Duke colors)
