Sounds like you avoided some of the more common middleman traps. I'm too scared to deviate from my kiltmaker...sound like your risk paid off handsomely.
Thanks.
Yes that is a fleur de lis pin I picked up a few weeks ago---thought it appropriate because I live in Louisville, and with my distant relationship to the Norman conquest.
Yeah, I consider it a lucky shot in the dark but did do a little more research than I mentioned before pulling the trigger, and figured I would get at least a decent quality wool casual out of the whole deal at the worst. Plus they said if I was not satisfied send it back and they would make things right, one way or another. Risky venture for them with a custom weave tartan that put my risk taking mind at ease. I really think they are serious about breaking into the online business. Their site is well done but their distribution of products is spotty and borders on the marginally modern----some tweed and linen and other alternative fabric kilts and full outfits. Made me think a bit of TFCK and wonder if they were somehow related.
