New Kilt Advice

[Kilted in Maine]

Steve,

Don't take this the wrong way but you must decide what you want first in order for others to give you some direction.

In your initial post you indicate you want a "Tank" but later say you don't care if it is hand or machine sewn.

A "Tank" by definition is the following:

A 'TANK' is defined as an eight-yard, wool, hand-sewn, traditional kilt. ie., "It's built like a tank." (coined by Jimmy Carbomb c.2005) - See FAQ section

If you truly want a "Tank" there are many vendors both retail and independent that could assist you here. But you must realize you are investing in a "top of the line" quality product. Looking for a "deal" for that type of investment may not be in your best interest.

Now, if you are looking for a machine sewn kilt, there are also many vendors that advertise here and finding a deal for this type of product may be more feasible.

Lastly, you could also consider a 4-yard box pleat hand-sewn by Matt Newsome.

So, as I indicated you really need to narrow down what you want in order to receive some productive advice.
