    If she's being honest about the pocket problem, then I'd leave the nontrads at home. I wonder if she just doesn't like it and doesn't want to risk hurting your feelings.

    But my gut reaction was, if you're just wearing the nontrad for practice and donning the tartan for performances and competitions, I don't see a problem.

    Get an Amerikilt. They're similar to UK's, and don't have the cargo pockets.

    Alex,

    I had a great lot of fun one evening at SCD class wearing the X Kilt Alan H made for me. The week prior one of our members had mentioned "these strange new kilts made of all sorts of material...even camouflage!"

    Well with that sort of challenge I had to respond!

    It went over quite well.

    Now if only someone would mention a pink kilt....

    Cheers

    I've seen some non-traditional kilts at SCD workshops in the NW USA. I don't have a problem with them for the informal parts, but the ball . . . !
