    Today we start to breath a large sigh of relief
    We have 40+ special orders coming in-half of which are shipping to xmark members
    plus 156 kilts sitting in NY Customs
    and another 296 kilts shipping today and tomorrow

    we are talking to our bank and looks like we will be getting a line of credit to STOCK 20 kilts, 5 of each size running 30-44
    Or about 800 kilts

    As many of you know we have busting our butts to keep stuff in inventory - (this is not a bad problem to have-means we are selling lots)
    BUT we are trying to move past the JUST IN TIME delivery stage.
    for the last 6 months it seems like one day we have 250 kilts the next week we have 73.
    We want to be able to say "YES we have that size instock"

    we are thinking of stocking

    Hmm...MacArthur is a really nice tartan (my family's, of course)!
    I'm actually trying to get my band to check you guys out! We wear MacKenzie. The band has gone from rather small to bursting at the seams in a very short time. I think you guys definitely beat the $400-$700 a pop price range for a decent kilt!!
    Congratulations on your expansion!

    How about some welsh or irish tartans as well?
