WELCOME Scott,

I understand your quandry. As far as finding an inexpensive Kilt I would like to recommend Rocky and Kelly from USA Kilts. The Kilts are great and in PV for a decent price. If your butt-waste ration is fairly equal a Stillwater Kilt may be in your future.

I am sure some others will have some more advice at this time than I, as my mind just went blank.

Good Luck in your hunt!
