    I've mentioned this in other posts. My kilt is former military. It has a pocket sewn into the under-apron. It's would probably be for the pay book. I use it for concert tickets.

    It's not former military. But, my Morrison tank features this same type of pocket.



    Other than concert tickets, or perhaps a map or pamphlet I can't see much use for it.

    That's for the ceramic armor plating needed to protect the rest of the world from Brad's masculine pulchritude.

    I'll admit I had to look that word up. I thought these pockets were for flasks, although I can't for the life of me, figure out why a Scotsman would need to carry a flask!

    I actually usually pride myself on a larger than average vocabulary. But, I'll admit I had to look that up as well.

    FK now offers an Under-Apron Pocket Option on all our kilts. It is sized to hold a blackberry or your passport when traveling. Fastened with a small piece of velcro, I think this is becoming my favorite pocket. No cell phone hanging off your belt, you can access it while sitting in the car with the seat belt on and you can always put the phone on vibrate and tell your wife to call you.

    Steve!

    I love it when I have my cell phone in my pocket and Panache calls (I always feel very guilty when it's someone else though! ).

    Be well,

    I'm going to like that pocket.

    One question though, do you carry the phone in that pocket while walking around? Just how "easy access" is it? I don't really want to look like I'm sitting there groping myself. Well, at least not for a long period of time.

    I had actually considered this. But, one of my concerns was that the pocket is "open" at the top. But, the velcro idea seems so obvious, I'm surprised I didn't think of that! I guess I'll be adding velcro to it soon. Another, I'm not sure how comfortable having my blackberry there will be while walking. They have been known to hurt people you know.
