    CJ, thanks for the response. I hope you folks can find some way to deal with the problems resulting from scale.

    What an Incredible Post

    Thanks CJ! Great post....wraps it all up well. That's what I wanted to know from the git go. Thanks for the detailed explaination.

    Seems even better than the UK board post...maybe you could repost this over there too....I like the part about me being a UK good guy ;)

    I agree, that is an excellent post, Christian, and very succinctly worded. Thank you for it.

    It seems I have been fortunate. Having closely examined all eleven of my Utilikilts, I can find no evidence of the drill holes that concerned Brother Ron. Should I find any on subsequent purchases, however, I shall know the reason for them.

    Thanks again.

    Christian,

    I would like to extent a very warm welcome, and a thank you for finally giving us an official voice from the Utilikilts Company.
    If you will look thru the archives of this forum you will find quite a few posts by people purporting to be representitives of Utilikilts. I hope you will continue to give us your voice and insights. That voice has been missed.
    Again, Welcome.

    *blushing*

    Thank you all for the positive feedback! It make me wanna post more and more and more and more!!! ;-)

    I will try to be more active on this board. I looked around and there were other UK-specific posts that I put my $0.02 in on... hopefully it helps, and doesn't sound too much like I'm some sort of slimy marketeer.

    I really don't know much about other casual kilts, so my comments will probably be restricted to UK-only stuff, but I will help where I can.


    Be well, my friends!
    - CJ

    It's not Easter, but I thought this was an interesting enough post to comment on. Has anyone heard from CJ or other UK representatives since then? How have your views changed about UK and patent infringements by other American kilt makers?

    My next kilt will not be a UK, but one of our supporters on this forum.

    I've been waiting for a long time for a brown survival UK. When I ordered it, the UK website said specifically "product available". Two days later I get an email saying it shouldn't take that long, but it could take up to six weeks because brown survivals are made to order. I tried calling to get an idea of when I would have it, but the guy on the phone blew me off.

    Had I known that kilt was made to order I might have purchased something else. I'm keeping my fingers crossed in hopes the thing doesn't show up on my doorstep with those little holes.

    Ummmm......This is a little old and I think Utilikilts have probably perfected their techniques in the four years since this thread was started.
