The money you would save by not buying a "starter kilt" is most of the cost of a traditional kilt.

Sorry it to took me so long to respond
When I do buy the proper thing (trust that I will) I to will wear it for special occasion as others do. I can not afford to wear a handsewn tank just as I cannot afford to wear a custom taylered 3 piece suit everyday. Just paying for the dry cleaning every week would put a good dent in my budget. I buy the clothes I can afford to wear.
With that said I can understand that if you can afford it then buy best. The quality and fit of a custom hand sewn tank is beyond comparison. The feel, the fit, the swish,etc is something every one should experience and one day I will. Till then I'll have to settle for something less. Otherwise it's jeans and shirts till my 6 and 8 year old have finished their undergraduate degree.
