    The making of kilt jackets in America is an area that could be quite profitable for some one, I suspect, especially argyll ones for daywear. There are quite a few kiltmakers here, but few who make other Scots clothing. I would guess there is an opportunity to get in on the ground floor of a niche market and make it one's own.

    I don't know anything about J Higgins' jackets, but have a pair of their diced hose, made from some kind of synthetic material that is not at all of the quality of woolen ones.

    The Wizard of BC is thinking about adding them to the offerings of Freedom Kilts but that might be a bit in the future considering he is currently trying to move his shop, update his website, and keep up with his orders.

    Cheers
