Bear has two differnt versions of the Douglas tartan. You seem to have gotten a few different opinions to your question. I would like to add my voice to the Bear Kilt choice. I currently have 3 of these and cannot say enough about his product. I have had the opportunity to view a few other kilts made from Poly/viscose, and Bear is the only company I will order this material from. His workmanship and attention to detail are unparralled. I bought my first kilt from him almost 2 years ago, and have since seen other companies try to match what he has to offer. Go Bear!
