    Hee hee hee, I try.

    I guess i'm not too much into wearing historically accurat garb and that stuff. I like modern traditional kilts, and some contemporary, all made from machine woven fabrics. I know some people who aim for handwoven belted plads, though. They also try to be accurate in the rest of the reenactment.
