FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
IS THE ORIGINAL GRILLKILT ACTUALLY A KILT?
The GRILLKILT is not a traditional kilt nor a typical apron. Traditional kilts are typically made of wool, have pleats, and aren't meant for grilling. Our GRILL-KILTS are made of cotton (or polyester), feature pockets instead of pleats, and are made specifically for grilling. We have invented custom grilling aprons made for grilling enthusiasts. The integrated waist "tool" belt supports the weight of your grilling accessories. The D-rings allow users to clip accessories to the belt, such as tongs and towels, with carabiner clips. Make no mistake, this grilling apron is no joke which is why it has been written up in publications such as Men's Journal, Forbes, Charleston Magazine and many others.
ARE THERE DIFFERENT SIZE OPTIONS?
The Original GRILLKILT is "one size fits most." The waist belt can be sized from 30" to 60". The included material in every GRILLKILT order can be sized and adjusted to allow complete waist coverage of up to 46". If you want complete 360-degree waist coverage in the rear, and are between 46" and 60", simply order additional panels which are sold separately, in pairs and in matching colors. Each panel provides up to 6" of additional waist coverage. Product length: 20". Sizing Instructions Video: https://youtu.be/fnw4bUneVVU
The GRILLKILT Tailgater is a front apron without rear panels. The belt fits 30" to 72" and can be cut to shorter, custom lengths. Product length: 20".
ARE YOUR GRILL APRONS WASHABLE ?
Yes! The fabric is made of 100% cotton, except Tartan which is 100% polyester. All are washable in cold water. However, there are components (plastic clips and hook and loop) that will shrink or discolor if exposed to sustained periods of high heat. Therefore, we recommend a cold wash. To dry, we recommend hanging or a delicate or light cycle in the dryer. You can also steam out wrinkles. It can be pressed with an iron on low heat. We recommend placing a piece of fabric (or the inside of a side panel) between the hot iron and the GRILLKILT so that the heat from the iron is transferred without damaging or fading the GRILLKILT fabric.
ARE YOUR GRILL APRONS COMFORTABLE ?
Absolutely! It is more comfortable that your favorite pair of shorts. The GRILLKILT is made of soft, comfortable, breathable 100% cotton (except our polyester Tartan model) fabric. You can wear it with or without the rear panels and you can wear it over your pants/shorts/swimsuit/underwear or skin. Fatherly.com says "If it is a kilt you grill in, it's hotter than an episode of 'Outlander.'" (...but they aren't talking about temperature). :)
WHY IS THERE NO TOP BIB?
If you want a top bib, look at our "convertible ragtop" accessory which can be added and removed at your convenience.
ARE THEY MADE IN THE USA?
Each and every one of our awesome grilling aprons are all sewn in the U.S.A. by hard-working Americans. However, the fabrics and parts are all sourced from various vendors and are not all 100% fabricated in the U.S.A.
WHAT IS YOUR SHIPPING POLICY?
We try hard to ship the same day on orders received before 1pm and then typically the following day upon order receipt (Mondays if ordered on the weekend). Typically, we ship UPS Ground service on orders received. We offer rush shipping at checkout for those who select it at checkout. Shipping is calculated at checkout by our 3rd party shipping carriers. Currently, we ship to the U.S.A. We can ship to Canada and a few European countries but customs fees and shipping make it expensive. Email us to discuss overseas shipping.
