    A UK can swing a little, though some will say more like a bell and not like a kilt should swing. I tend to agree with this. However, I have found that the UKs relax and swing just a tiny bit better after a few washings.

    Aye,

    Since the pleats meet in the middle they don't swing as much as a traditional hand sewn, or a contemporary with pleats like a traditional hand sewn, aka Freedom Kilts.

    As to the question, would think Mockers might swing a bit more than Originals since they don't have the outside cargo pockets on the sides.

    When I walk with my originals sometimes the cargo pockets flap up and down as I walk. No clue why.
