Last night after work I tried on the Lidl Black Watch kilt, I was really surprised by the weight of it and of the quality. Yesterday before I tried it on I thought it was just another cheap kilt similar to what is advertised on the internet but this was a heavyweight kilt with the correct number of pleats given it a touch of class.
Of course the real test will be when I wear it outside and walk about, only then can you really know how the kilt feels and looks. So I will be wearing it on Friday night at the local Burns Supper.
I said yesterday that perhaps it would only be for casual wear but I think you could risk it on a formal occassion, anyway the proof is in the wearing of it and walking about.
I'll post with my opinion after Friday
Apparently there were still plenty in the Gorgie store in Edinburgh yesterday afternoon. That might have something to do with the famous Gold Bros cutting their cheapest 'kilt' to 19.99 though.
As it seems to have gone so well I wonder if Lidl will repeat the experiment next year also.
I would be surprised if the Gorgie store hasn't sold out well before the end of the week, Gold Bros not withstanding.

Lidl usually repeat their offers . They had a nice telescope for sale here in Norway two years running. I missed out the first time but was lucky the second
