That "Welsh Patriot" tartan is pretty nifty.

Yeah, that's why I got it because I had never seen it before and liked it. It's too bad about the twill lines but I'll use it anyway. O'Neille

BTW do you realize your avatar twill lines go to the right too.

Well heck they do don't they? I just went and looked at one of my old tartan books and they are just a muddle with no consistency there either. O'Neille

I like the lable "Acrylic Wool"?

What the HE(double hocky sticks)'s is that? :confused:

Strange; both kilts seem to have the same label.

It is a familiar one; one of my kilts had that on it (I think it was the Gold Brothers' business, but not sure), and, as it happens, I like the kilt. It was cheap, needed some adjustment (it was too big), feels like soft wool, keeps its shape

I'd say some of these suppliers get products from several different sources, and you can never be quite sure what you are buying.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

One of my favorite things about this board is the warnings about things I've been tempted to try.

The lines on the pleats of the back of the second kilt look like an acid trip.

You can have any two of price, quality, or service...usually. These folks look like they only offer price.

I may have paid more for my tartan kilts from USA Kilts and Kathy's Kilts but its saved me agony like this and the value is there solid beside the quality.

Thanks for passing on your less than pleasing experiences too.

For fellow Welshmen, don't forget the Prince of Wales tartan at USA Kilts. Its not shown on the casual listing, but Rocky will do it in a casual. If I had to do it all over again I'd do it in semi-trad. A beautiful tartan, even if it too is a fashion tartan.

Guess I hate it when someone professing to sell quality kilts sucks folks in with a sharp patriotic tartan then screws it up.
