Quality of a Tank vs other kilts
After reading literally a couple hundred threads here i have a question about the quality (hardiness) of tanks. I keep reading that there is nothing like a tank. That others are just so called knockoffs but good for just kicking around. Invariably statements about how great some tank is and how the person just loves it, are followed by some version of " But it cost like $600 so i only wear it to weddings".
Ehh? Isnt the point of a "real" tank that it's made from good scottish worsted wool? Shouldnt it be pretty much indestructible? Well, almost anyway? Especially strome. If i paid $600 for something..and i will be soon (a Kathy Lare kilt yea!) i better be able to wear it in pretty much anything but the armageddon. Why do people talk about knocking around in their cheap kilts instead of wearing what should be a superior product as far as hardiness goes? Just curious. Are tanks that fragile?
Be Well
