I like the skirt more than the pleated kilt because of the weight and the lower price. I like all the above. Skirts allow you to quickly slip on long underwear when the temps drop. Recommend trying several to see what feels the best to you.

All these skirts/kilts are super comfortable on the trail, exercise walking, or working around the ranch. Always wear commando.

Except for the Sport Kilt, all are available through Amazon.
