Generously-sized and well stitched, this kilt is just what I was looking for. I did order a little larger than I needed because I was between sizes, so it will need a belt to make it fit well, but the waistband is equipped with sturdy belt loops. The pleats are stitched along the edges to keep them sharp, and the fabric is quite stiff, so you might want to sew some curtain weights in the hem to keep it hanging nicely.

Since 2015 I wear a kilt almost everyday Spring, Summer and Fall - sometimes a traditional kilt and sometimes a utilikilt. I particularly like with this one with the two additional smaller pockets not found on earlier utilikilts (earlier ones only have the two large cargo pockets). Definitely no need for a sporran to hold your things (wallet, keys, comb etc.) It is nice that you can unsnap the cargo pockets but the waist closure system needs a little help.
Received my utility kilt after just 3 weeks. The stitching and quality is great. A really heavy weight to the material also. Brilliant details the pockets and the size or length are spot on. I can't wait to make another purchase.
The Swanky Utility Kilt is made for those who need to stay active while looking good. I love it!
A perfect mix of modern design and classic tradition. The Swanky Utility Kilt is a great choice by everyone.
Great fit, very well made, and heavy weight material. Hubby loved the look and feel of this one!

The design is a great touch! Stylish yet practical for all types of work. Amazing I’m in love it - quality is great fit is amazing.
I bought this utility kilt to wear around the house, and is a quality hard wearing item for the money. It has 2 utility pockets which hang at the sides, but the press button fastenings are a little hard to open at first. It features belt loops if you wish to add a belt. Instead of the traditional leather straps to fasten this kilt, it has press stud fasteners, and is adjustable to fit your size, (about an inch and a half or so), but remember to measure around your belly button to get the correct size. This kilt is a sturdy, comfortable hard-wearing item, and I would recommend this item
I absolutely love this product! The quality and the price are outstanding. I read the reviews before purchasing and yeah it makes sense to order 1 size up. 100% recommend this to anyone.
I wore this kilt to a regional Burning Man festival. This was very comfortable in both summer heat and chill night. The fabric's weight feels solid and thick, and not flimsy. Being thick cotton, I think it will hold up very well to falling embers and although that didn't get tested much this time. The pockets are deep and very useful but may be too narrow for wider hands. They held my phone and collapsible cup easily. The waist snaps aren't bad. You can also supplement then with a leather belt. I found a belt alone will hold the kilt just fine when dressing in a hurry. The discussing of the snaps is helpful and flexible. Being solid black, dirt showed very readily, but it's wipable with a wet cloth. I found it served all the purposes of a fire festival very well.

How it is made
Every kilt is cut from stocked cloth and pleated by hand to the tartan, so the pattern runs true across the back rather than breaking at each fold. The apron is squared, the straps and buckles are fitted to the waist you send, and belt loops are set so a kilt belt sits level. Nothing is cut from a size block.
