Yep. I was thinking the SAME thing.

As far as the popular tartans. I think I would go for a Gordon modern myself. No connection, but the tartan has really grown on me in the last year.

Black Watch is good for me since its my clan tartan. The X-Marks tartan in PV is also a good idea as they already have experience producing this tartan in wool.

The Gordon is beautiful.

I'll send this directly to the e-mail provided, but I'm suggesting
1. X-Marks
2. MacDonald variants (Glengarry, Glencoe, Clanranald, etc.) There are a ton of Clan Donald folks out there that would like an option other than "MacDonald Modern", and most of these variants use the same colors.

A bit off topic, but this is the place to pose this question based on the information in the first post.

So this being said, should one look for polyester / rayon blend as opposed to ployester viscose? Or are rayon and viscose the same thing? I only ask because I've been looking for PV and can't seem to find it. I never looked for polyester / rayon though.

Yes, "Viscose" is the UK term for what we call "rayon" in the US.

I am now to the point, personally, where I have enough kilts and the few that I will be making in the future (3 for myself) are limited tartans that he'd never want to weave, or they're contemporary kilts in camoflage or something. So, I'm no help.
