Who actually OWNS a Scottish hand-sewn?

[Chef]

Call me a snob if you like, but I personally wouldn't wear anything but a traditional hand crafted, hand stiched kilt.

.I honestly had no idea that other people around the world would be interested in the kilt,other than those with Scottish roots.

I have to say I am wrestling with some people's version of what they consider constitutes a kilt and most certainly I find it extremely hard to grasp the idea of people wearing more than one(prehaps two--- clan and regimental for example)tartan.Still,each to their own.

So what am I? Old fashioned?Yes. A traditionalist?Yes. Out of touch?Probably. A snob?I very much hope not.

See I new I wasn't alone!

Actually I have decided that if this viewpoint makes me a snob then fine.I have actually tried a couple of the off-the-rack-kilts but they rarely ever get worn. Sometimes they get put on just so I can say I did. Personally I prefer my GT and House of Edgar kilts although I also have a couple of handsewn ones from kiltmakers here in the states and I have been very pleased with them.

Jock I do own more than a few kilts, but that is primarily because I wear them for some of the work I do. However they are all either family or District tartans that I have a connection with.
