Cheap kilts in uk

[GG]

I really think this is great.

Cheap kilts may very well mean the start of kilt wearing to many. And sooner or later they will buy better and more expensive ones.

Kiltmakers should be happy, not angry. In the long run the good ones, at least, shall profit from the Lidl initiative.

Well said Greg. That's exactly how I started. When I first bought a Kilt it was for a bit of a wheeze and I could never have seen myself justifying £300+ on a single garment. I bought a PV cheapy for about £40 initially which did the job for a while. It was this that got me hooked and I now own nine wool kilts. Not all bought new and at full whack I'll admit but several of them were. I have even commissioned a special weave (Bruce Hunting) made to measure which cost me some. Without an entry level kilt to get me going I would never have known the sheer enjoyment of wearing one (or been so hopelessly addicted to them now. Pesky cheap Kilts... Paaaah!!) I would also not have met such the wonderful array of folk that I've encountered since I started this journey, both on the web and in person.

Trefor: I think this is a picture of Mike's Lidl Kilt. Correct me if I'm wrong.

I have three from Lidl, there are places that i would never think to wear one of my more expensive kilts, so these cheap kilts have their place in pubs, football and rugby matches, parties etc.
Tomorrow night I'm at a Burns Supper and like last year there will be lots of kilties who are first time buyers and its the Lidl kilts that they will be wearing and yes this is the first step in their graduation to full highland regalia

Yes that's the one John.

I agree - My man has a number of kilts he wears for just the venues you describe where you wouldn't want to be dressed in the finest of stuff.

But they can be a little lightweight, so can I suggest a hint. A couple of small weights sown into the hem doesn't go amiss. SO once donned a cheapie for a hike in the hills on quite a gusty day and can I just say I was mooned more often than an astronomer on night duty.
