From the Wiki:
"The Utilikilts Company is an American contemporary or "utility" kilt company founded by Steven 'Krash' Villegas in April 2000. Villegas created his first kilt in the late '90s as an alternative to pants meant to offer freedom of movement, while working on his motorcycle. Created from an old pair of military pants, Villegas was so fond of his creation he wore it quite often around town. He was approached by his first customer, "a bouncer that you wouldn't want to mess with", at a local bar. That first encounter encouraged him to produce more kilts, and sell them at the Pike Place Market and Fremont Street Market, in Seattle. Villegas soon formed the Utilikilts Company, establishing both brick-and-mortar and web-based storefront for the product. "
