    Utilikilts looks like the economic downturn is hurting it, at least in searches.

    That's a strong decline. I would invest my money in January and Withdraw all in the summer, if I were a highland games investor.

    Looks bad; below average for two years. Is the world losing interest in kilts?

    Not that the world is really involved in searching for kilts; interest is obviously confined to the north Atlantic.

    That's true for kilts, but bagpipes seems to be more prevalent between Australia and New Zealand.

    Not really, its just that people are prioritizing their expenses, and spending hundreds of dollars for a single piece of clothing, right now, is obviously not an option for a lot of people.

    Even SWK and other economy kilts are just optional at the time.

    I mean, the economy is what it is...REALLY BAD.
