Camouflage kilts for father and son?

Although likely a bit pricy based on your description, it generally sounds like you might be describing the utilikilt, most likely the original. http://www.utilikilts.com/company/pr...ilts/original/

A much more affordable alternative, if you are willing to spend a little time with a sewing machine, would be the X-kilt. Check your local fabric stores. You might be able to get 2 kilts out of one length, if it's wide enough. (read the directions before buying your materials to make sure to get the proper stuff)

$215-$330 USD for me -- probably similar for son = $430-$660 + shipping, etc. A touch too high (right now, at least)... Plus not currently available in the "right" camo (according to my son).

I *wish* I could sew...but I don't think there's even needle and thread in the house, let alone a working sewing machine. I'll review the X-kilt stuff -- it's still possible...

Thanks!

I can almost guarantee even with buying everything you need, you can build 2 X-kilts for less than the cost of 1 utilikilt. I'm on my 2nd xkilt, and making it harder than it needs to be because I want to make the inside of the pleats a different color. Around here, at Jo Ann Fabrics, without a sale, you can buy a decent sewing machine for about a hundred bucks. Wait for a sale, and that price goes down. Don't ever pay full price for fabric at Jo Ann fabrics. Wait a few weeks, and the fabric you want will be on sale.

AltKilt is a forum sponsor and I would highly recommend Jeanie. I would recommend writing her with what you are looking for and see what she comes up with. I consider their kilts a very good value.
