Hand made wool tanks are fantastic and very useful.
That does not mean that low cost man-made kilts are bad and of no use.... They are good, if for no other reason than it will get a few more people in a kilt. They serve well for changing the oil or bar hopping as well.
James- ai'm no sayin' these plastic kilts can no bae made useful... sure ya cuid use them fur fitba matches an the like...ya arr richt...
ai'm just sayin' a plastic kilt frae Pakistan sold in a grocery store is no the same thing as a wool kilt frae Scotland sold in a kilt shop...
just like a plastic Smith & Wesson .357 made in China an sold a' Toys R Us is no the same thing as a steel Smith & Wesson .357 made in USA an sold in a gun shop....
they may luek the same frae a distance... but folk wha use guns wuid no confuse the two...
(and no- please dinnae turn this intae a gun discussion- that wuz a metaphor)
