Just don't understand the high price of the 8 yard kilt these days. I mean hand sewn, yeah, but most all kilts are made on a flat tailor's board with some sort of sewing machine. So, OK-That is part of the price-But the wool material...70-140$ a yard?!?!? Why is that? I just saw a youtube post of one of the weaving houses making material. They were all automated weaving machines with one person looking very bored and monitoring the situation. I refuse to believe that when all is said and done, that the price with mark-up is a fair price per yardage. I think it must be an incredible profit margin for material.

I've recently been trying to get back into my piping sleeves and have found the price jump astronomical from when I left-Which wasn't THAT long ago.....Oh well...I guess I have issues.....Thank GOD for Matt....
