I really enjoy this kilt. It is extremely comfortable and rugged. A few issues I have though is the material is extremely thick/tough, which gives it the ruggedness. But because of its properties it wrinkles a lot. The pleats will unfold even though they are sewn. The pleats aren't unidirectional so sitting down is difficult because you have to hold two directions down when sitting or just let them do whatever they want and risk the creases. The pockets on the side are nice and roomy but they aren't stitched down so they like to flops which is fine until you reach for the button and it just pulls the whole pocket up. Overall as a beginner kilt/ utility kilt I love it. But don't buy it thinking your going to get the same quality as a authentic wool kilt.
