YE 43 Tactical Kilt

The tactical kilt is a type of kilt designed specifically for the military forces of the Democratic Imperium of Nepleslia that offers superior ventilation to the massive nuts of dudes (and long-haired marines).

History

The short kilt was invented millennia ago and was popularized as industrial workwear by workers in iron foundries and lumberjacks because it was less cumbersome and less likely to catch on fire/get caught in big-ass saws. It is based on the even older, traditional kilt design.

In 43.7 the Nepleslian Space Marine Corps authorized a kilt because a non-trivial but very vocal minority of marines wouldn't shut the frack up about it. Once the kilts made it into uniform shops their comfort and fashion made them gain popularity and acceptance, although it's never going to be as common as pants.

Description

The YE 43 Tactical Kilt is khaki in color and made of rigid tear-resistant synthetic material similar to found in other military field uniform jackets. It is pleated at the bottom and has a large cargo pocket on both sides. The front panel has two hanging steel D-rings and four metal studs (painted with non-reflective coating) and contains a large cargo pouch that can be used to hold pistol and rifle magazines. It has two front slant pockets similar to the ones typically found on pants. The top of the kilt has large belt loops suitable for a thick tactical operator belt. The standard kilt length is 24 inches but other lengths are available for space marines of unusual size and girth such as ID-SOL descendants.

Usage

The YE Tactical Kilt is worn as a substitute for the khaki tactical cargo pants worn with the YE 30 NSMC Standard Uniform and similar uniforms. It considered is a gender-neutral item. The kilts have created a tradition of mooning soldiers of foreign military forces as an ongoing prank, because they're tough enough to fight they should be tough enough to get an eyeful of Nepleslian asscheek. Kiss this, Star Army!
