    Do you think this kilt would stand up to a week of hard hiking/backpacking in the berkshires of western massachusetts?

    Also, how is the sizing? is the 38" kilt waist or pant waist?

    I'd replace the straps as I mentioned in my review before I headed into the boonies, otherwise I'm sure it'd hold up just fine.

    I"m 38" at the navel, and the 38" kilt at that height is tightened to the center hole on the straps, so I'd say their sizing is dead on. I'm 6'3" and that brings the hem to the center of my knee.

    fantastic. I'll have to order a pair of them at 36". At 6'3 myself, I am dead set on loosing extra baggage, so with a kilt that will only go so big, it should be a perfect fit!

    thanks!

    Talking

    hehehe,... definitely I'll give a look on that, after ur report,... it sounds good!even when i still have to decide if I go for a black watch or try to look for 6 people interested in having one in my tartan... :rolleyes:

    If quality is as good as u said,... 100$ will not be expensive for an extremely rare tartan kilt!

    ˇSalud!
