    LOL. I just checked them out. What I find funny is they say "Please contact us if your clan is not listed"



    Uh... they only show 4 kilts. So the other 2500+ tartans out there should contact them to let them know they don't have theirs. ALSO, they don't say how they are made. It doesn't say what type of fabric, what weight, how many yards, nothing. I'm not paying over $200 for a kilt when I don't even know what product I'm getting. Plus the sporran they sell (the only sporran they sell) is $300!

    Ok i'm done... i'm just shocked at that merchant.

    Not, you are not at all alone. More often than not I don't wear one, either.

    I rarely wear a kilt pin, either... too dangerous for the kilt.

    ...more like 7000+, but who's counting.

    I contacted the company about the backward kilts, and asked if there was a reason they were displayed that way. Haven't heard back yet. Will let you know if I do.

    Side note: The kilt items listed say "added January 1 2006". Does that mean they have been up there for 2+ years like that and no one has said anything?

    Don't wear something like this... though it is a costume.



    I note that it costs $250... For that, you could have a quality real kilt.

    I particularly like the argyle socks.

    Why, it's the "Scottish Man" costume! Doesn't it look Scottish to you?!

    No; I believe the principle of "if it's nae Scottish, it's CRRRRRRRAP!" works in reverse as well (i.e. "if it's crrrrrrrrap, it's NAE SCOTTISH!").
