I like the Utilitux. Personally, I'll get a tank before one of those; but, I think they compare quite favorably with the TFCK kilt suit.
Of course, I'm not the kind of guy who has much use for formalwear- weddings, funerals & job interviews.

No gasps, but my wife said the reflection from my cantle pinpointed me through the show. I may have to find a black cantle for next season.

Hmmmn! I would not recommend a black cantle (if such exists!). Your almost all-black outfit needs the relief that a regular dress cantle will provide. From the auditorium it could appear that you are not wearing a sporran at all, if you dispense with that touch of silver!
Maybe there is something you could apply to it (on a temporary basis, of course) that would prevent a 'high gloss' reflection - something to just dull it down a little to give it more of a matt surface. I do not know what product to suggest, but there must be something available out there that could be sprayed on, and wiped off again as required.
Just a thought!
Take care,
Ham.

Try hair spray. That's what we use on stage when a prop mirror becomes too reflective. It is easily removed with a rag and warm water.

Well done and good for you.I hope you don't mind me asking,but what do you think your director etc. and the audiance's reaction would have been to you wearing a tartan kilt with say a PC jacket and bow tie,dress shoes etc.?Should you have wanted to,of course.

I don't think the director would of liked if it was a tarten because then their wouldn't be uniformity(I hope thats a word).

Congratulations, Mowgli! That's a very cool thing to be able to do: singing in the chorus, and wearing the kilt too . Just out of curiousity, what was the programme that night?

It sounds like a sharp outfit. You need to get a pic of the whole ensemble and post it. I'm sure you were the most comfortable man there.
