Has anyone ever done business with this web site? They have some great deals - which always leaves me a little nervous. http://www.scottishclansman.com They also have some pre-made kilts on clearance (I'm guessing from people that order and then bail) for pretty cheap prices - 16oz 8yard traditional for $300 American. http://www.scottishclansman.com/Readymade.html Rufus
I haven't yet, but considered buying from them. I bought from www.scottishkilts.net instead after someone mentioned Clansman was slow. Scottishkilts had my order in my hand in a bit less than 4 weeks from order confirmation, and that's from Glasgow.
4 Weeks!! Most places are telling me 8-16 weeks! I was thinking of getting something for my friend's wedding in June, but figured I had missed the date that I could order in time for. Maybe now I can! Thanks for the tip, Bubba! Rufus
Heres what I posted earlier this year: http://www.xmarksthescot.com/viewtopic.php?p=1459#1459 Good luck.
Hi all, just my .02$, but I would avoid Clansman Knitwear (scottishclansman.com)like the plague, their customer service SUCKS! Come on John, tell us what you really think. No need to hold back here....
Concurr with John's assessment of Clansman knitwear. Although I got a great deal on my formal 8yd kilt and the quality is superior, it took months to arrive: ordered it in FEB and my kilt arrived in July. Go figure. I do highly recommend Tartan Web. Ordered a tailor-made Sherriffmuir formal kilt jacket and it arrived within 4 weeks and fit to a tee. My wife took the measurement as they instructed and their tailor did the rest.
www.scottishkilts.net is excellent too. Their service is outstanding.
John and CelticRogue, Thanks for the warnings guys. I was just about to order a sporran from them (The semi-dress for $100) but I don't think I will now. Not if their service is that bad. I wasn't really sure of the quality of the sporran anyway (hard to trust something that seems too good to be true.) I'll probably just order a day sporran somewhere else.
Rufus: Good call about the sporran. I got a dress sporran from Clansman for what appeared to be a great price: $85.00 regular $100. It is ok but quality is fair and the metal ornamentation at hte top is rather cheap. Live and learn. Will get good stuff this summer when I'm in Scotland.

Oh man, I think that was the one I was looking at. I was skeptical because they said the sporran was fur, but never said what kind, or if it was even real. It could have been dyed rat for all I know. Sorry you got a raw deal. After what I've learned now, I'm really glad that I didn't get anything from these guys.
