The Kilted Nation :: Utilikilts :: Survival
If you fend off crocodiles for a living, spend most of your time
trapped on desert islands or are planning on climbing a few mountains
over the summer, the Survival is the Utilikilt you’ve been dreaming of.
Requested by adventurer and tattoo historian Vince Hemingson and
worn by the original “Survivor” contestant Richard Hatch (O.K., he was
naked most of the time, but he totally wore it on TV), the Survival is
the most advanced Utilikilt we offer. Whether you’re climbing a
mountain, planning a three-week sojourn into the back woods or just
looking for a way to carry 20 bottles of beer, the Survival is the kilt
for you.
The survival is basically an Original, a Mocker and a Workman
spliced together with a bunch of new features on top. It’s more than a
Utilikilt, it’s a way of life.
The Survival features the deep internal slant pockets of the Mocker,
plus a pair of detachable side-saddle cargo pockets (each with its own
closure flap and belt loops.)
Basically each cargo pocket can be pulled off and used like a belt
pack. Wading across a river and don’t want to get your stuff wet? Pull
off the cargo pockets, stuff the rest of the Utilikilt inside and toss
it across to shore. Pockets stuffed full as you get to the airport?
Pull off the pockets, drop them on the x-ray conveyor belt, and stride
on through the metal detector. Wear the Survival for awhile and you’ll
be shocked at just how useful these removable pockets really are.
Each cargo pocket is equipped with elastic-rimmed gussets, so it’ll
expand to fit all your junk, and fold right back to flat after use.
The two rear pockets don’t come off, but they are elastic rimmed and
can hold a heroic amount of stuff. Wear your Survival Utilikilt and you
might just leave that Hello Kitty backpack at home.
The Survival’s maximum capacity is 20 Bottles of the survival
beverage of your choice. That’s six in the front slant pockets, ten in
the cargo pockets and four in the back. With the Survival around your
waist, you’ll never go thirsty.
Other Features:
- Key clasp on the front of the Survival keeps your massive keychain out of the way and leaves room for more beer in the pockets.
- The Survival introduces our new modesty closure system. Using a
simple button and loop setup, the new system keeps your Utilikilt
closed in even the toughest wind so you won’t flash your buddies on the
trail. Another loop and button pulls the front and back of the Survival
together, keeping your ass covered for those long climbs up a windy
mountain, short bear-avoiding tree climbs or long drunken nights
sleeping one off on some strange couch.
