    In your dreams - Nobody, (except Grant, in my will) gets this kilt!

    Uh Oh - maybe I shouldn't have said that, now I have to watch out for hit men...........

    James me Lad, Being a Scot & a HBC Fur Trader, lets up the ante. How about 2 Lg. PRIME Beaver pelts, 1 PRIME Fox pelt & I will throw in a PRIME deer hide. NOTE - this will be enough to trade for a good rifle, powder & Ball, & then you don't have to hide.

    Now, now Jay you're safe for now. The price of putting about a dozen extra pleats is about the same as a new HBC kilt! Now if you wanting to will me something how about this from Matt's site?

    I've got an old Hudson Bay point jacket that I found in an antique store in Maine...



    Haven't tried to wear it with my kilt but I don't predict good things style-wise.

    You guys are a hoot - but everything listed would go with the kilt not for the kilt!!!

    But the point coat would be the kicker. Could you really picture that cut down to a kilt jacket. I even went so far as to price the pint blankets............. oh well.

    Maybe a point kilt jacket would work with a solid or tweed kilt.

    An HBC 20 point coin with a rare-earth magnet epoxied on would make a cool kilt pin. And JRB you are one lucky dude.
