ok, so a casual kilt would be better than a great, sounds fine i was leaning toward a casual kilt anyways.
i had gotten the idea of clansman from the highland games i went to, they has a tent and i grabbed a card. i looked at it and it looks good. reason i like them is that they arent really expensive and they have a great selection.
i'll go check the usa kilt place out.
thanks
nick
EDIT: i looked at the usa kilt, wow expensive. i think i'll go with scottsihclansman.

Remember Nick,
Wherever you shop, you can have any two (or less) of price, quality, and service.

1. a casual kilt from scottishclansman.com 250 bucks, morrsion red modern
2. maybe 6 yards of morrison material and make a traditional great kilt out of that. i think the price would be around 400, right?
3. at the celtic croft, a 5 yard great kilt for about 400 bucks.

Nick, Whatever you do, DO NOT GO TO CLANSMAN KNITWEAR AKA scottishclansman.com. Please, Please, Please, Please do a search on this board for clansman knitwear and read ALL the threads about them. Once you do, you will not go to them. I wish I had before I got my kilt from them. They will promise the world and when they don't deliver you will not hear a word from them.

It really depends on where you plan on wearing your kilt. I have been to a few Scots and Irish festivals, highland games and ren fairs. From my observations the majority of those wearing the kilt seem to wear the modern kilt at these events. The Ren fairs seem to have the largest collection of great kilts being worn and as mentioned earlier in the thread great kilts seem to be regarded as a costume.
My suggestion would be to get a tank in your favorite tartan and wear it with pride.
