Phrases along the lines of "unlike traditional tartans which are made of a linen-wool blend, this one is all wool to avoid violating the law of shatnez" have me, and other posters, wondering. Thought traditional kilting tartan was 100% wool? But perhaps they are talking about the full kilt construction, lining and stiffener and the lot, being 100% wool. Thread, too? Boggles the imagination (and you thought that old-school Dual Duty stuff was hard to stitch with! Try wool thread!).
That aside, I agree the Telegraph version is a classier look, and the commercialism at jewishtartan.com gives me pause.
