Well, after browsing their web page I am going to have to say it----I will not and would not recommend shopping this company, despite the nice product CMcG describes above.
They are a Gold Bros outlet as can be seen by their offerings of "Heritage" brand tartans, but that is not the reason to boycott them. This, however, is:
http://www.thescotlandkiltcompany.co...ilt-p-478.html
They are selling kilts in a tartan called "Skye Isles" which looks distinctly like the copyrighted Isle of Skye tartan that the Gold Bros have previously been sued for copyright infringement. Although I bet there is a subtle difference in the thread count allowing them to get away with it this time on a technicality, it is still unethical and poor business practice in my book.
Nuff said.
