Sportkilt advertises sashes for men

**Monkey@Arms** · 17th November 09, 04:25 PM

I've really got my doubts about this one. Sportkilt's latest offering is sashes which they show being worn by men, as a kind of plaid. Doesn't look like a plaid (day or fly) to me. Here's a link.

Best regards,

Jake

I don't think it's complete without the beer holders, though.

They've been around for a while...I was actually thinking of getting one for myself since I haven't found a sash that matches my MacPherson skirt or my husband's kilt from Scotsweb (Batley Mill).

Interesting. Not for me.

For you or a young child who is growing rapidly, Sport Kilt is deffinately the way to go. For your husband... Well, Arlen has it right- I dunno 'bout that... I'll never buy myself another Sport Kilt. On the other hand, I have now bought three for my wife. They look great- as womens clothes!

Good point!

I never thought of that. The only time I wear my SK is when I'm fighting- so maybe a spare sling to match my kilt would be a good idea!

I decided my comment wasn't entirely relevant to the opening post, so I deleted it.

A tartan bandolier, I kinda like that.......

But yes, I'd absolutely need one in MacPherson...touch not my brew but a glove!

I saw those too, I don't think much of them.

It looks like something for someone who doesn't want the weight/warmth/ or hassle of wearing a great kilt... yet still wants the look of the shoulder throw. I like the look, but would prefer to get an ancient kilt even though it's not traditional.

Aren't sashes such as this traditionally worn by the women?
