Ron, save your money. Rocky's casuals are not to be beat, see my prior response. Just based on the differences on the fabric alone, the USAK is a better option. And Cavscout has cinfirmed my suspicion that an SK with options would be equal or more than a USAK casual. Treat yourself my friend, get a USAK causal. You will be out the same, or less, money, and have a much better kilt. If you like your semi-trad, I will bet you like the casual as much, and possibly more so with the perma-pleats.
