I have one just like it. It's a great kilt. The straps suck, alright.

What options does one in dealing with the poor quality of the straps? I'm been wanting to find a REALLY heavy kilt for the winter weather we get here, but I'm not one of you handy types.

Buy one and replace the straps. That's no big deal, but the kilt is a real bargain, especially if you wear one in the cold. I almost guarantee you won't be cold. (I hesitate to actually guarantee since some folks are cold natured, and I'm not.)

You can still wear it with the straps that come with it--I still do--but I hate them and curse them, their designers, their makers, and all the forebears of the whole group!

But that is one killer of a kilt for about 300 bucks.

Indeed. The straps are really the only down side to the kilt. They are brittle and hard to buckle, as a matter of fact they are already breaking apart after three wearings!
