    Took the words out of my mouth Jimmy. Can't say I'm too wild about the buttons and narrow apron. Kind of makes me think it would look nice with a white blouse and some knee high socks :mrgreen:

    I do wish them luck, selling "kilts" in Brasil can't be that easy.

    And if you look at the photo showing the back, they have used the UK pleating style.

    I quickly browsed the site over my lunch hour and didn't notice that one. Nice pick-up Steve.

    I WILL give them one thing... they are original and not just a knock-off or boring also-ran. They're trying!

    Absolutely. These guys are giving the Tartan Kilts an exciting make over.

    At the bottom of the home page it says: Não à tirania das calças!
    "No to the tyranny of trousers!" They are learning fast.

    I also think they look very skirt like with those buttons on the apron. That may be the next fad in the kilt fashion.

    As for the UK Style Pleats, I have no problem with them. The pleat counts may be less than a traditional style, but that is not a traditional kilt! I bet they target their kilts to the fashion minded young guys.
