New Kilt Advice

[Monkey@Arms]

I may be looking to have a tank, wool kilt made. Who has advice on where I might get the best deal possible? Thanks in advance.

I'm looking for a great kilt, for the best deal - quality + price = great deal. I probably want MacDonald Modern but haven't decided for sure. So 4 or 5 choices won't do.

Cost wise, the best price on an 8 yard, 16oz wool, machine sewn, made-in-Scotland-kilt that I am currently aware of is at Tartanweb.

Their prices and that of their sister site, scottishkilts.net tend to fluctuate, sometime wildly, but right now you can get the aforementioned Modern MacDonald tartan with a choice of mills (Jura range from Marton Mills, or Strome range from Lochcarron) for $240 US, plus shipping and possible import duty.

I don't currently own one of their kilts, but they have gotten positive reviews here on Xmarks, though their customer communication is said to be only so-so.

Happy hunting.

Best regards,

Jake
