I'm hoping to order my first 8Yard kilt in mid-March from Scotweb in the 13oz with the Spirit of Scotland tartan. (I will probably never wear kilt in weather below 50 degrees but will have 100 degrees in southern USA. ie: AL,GA,FL)

I drive a truck for a living & curious about the wrinkling affect of the kilt sitting hours in the driver's seat? How often do you need to iron the kilt to keep the pleats ? How often do you need to clean the kilt. (Suggestions to send kilt for proper ironing of pleats on the road?)
I hope to be able to wear it atleast 2x a week walking the dog,etc.

Why is a kilt belt needed if there are ones already sewn inside? Are there belt loops on outside of kilt? (I've only seen the one in the rear for the sporran.) What is the correct width for the kilt belt?

And finally I would like to find a dog-bone shaped kilt pin; appreciate any info.
