[pct-l] Hiking Kilts

[Nitnoid1]

James,

I used a Sportkilt last year on a JMT backpack trip. I did not go commando, I wore synthetic boxers. The kilt is made of synthetic material so it is a lightweight kilt but still heavier than my shorts. The kilt weight is of no concern to me.   My legs are short and the kilt is a little too long. I'll shorten it for this year's campaigns. The color is called Pacific Crest Blue, in a plaid pattern.  Maybe I'll wear it at the kick off.

This subject has been touched upon but never discussed. For those who have
worn a KILT
what kind did you wear - would you do it again - advantages and
disadvantages - did you
go commando or not.How did they work out as you lost weight - were you too
hot or cold
any suggestions -- what material was it made from..etc.
