    OK, if you are being quoted $85.00 per yard for fabric you are being quoted a premium retail price. I am in Canada and I retail Lochcarron fabric for $80.00cdn. That is only $61.76 in US Dollars at today's exchange rate.

    For someone attending Kilt Kamp I offer the exact same fabric at only 10% over wholesale.

    Is it possible that the Tartan you want would have to be custom woven? The difference with custom woven fabric is that you have to order a minimum amount at one time. The weaving and hence the final price per yard isn't really that much different. Buying 12 yards instead of 4 does add up pretty quick.

    Yea, if I had been quoted $85.00 US per yard I would be a bit reluctant to buy it too.

    I wear the kilt because:
    Swish + Swagger = Swoon.
