How well have those kilts held up?

[Roan Carter]

What do you all suggest?

I'm totally going to be all over the WWI replica kilts from What Price Glory. I've become obsessed with them. The price seems really, really nice for the product, and the Cameron kilt seems to have some pretty interesting pleating ...

*drooooools*

I actually mean to order that today, lol. ^_^

before I respond, I'll let it be known that the two ebay tanks I own have taken up position as my default kilts. I've gone and done just about anything that can be done in a kilt in these. There is a strong possiblity that I will try to contact the seller and get a batch made in MacTavish(Thompson Red). If Anyone else would want a MacTavish (Thompson Red) ebay tank, let me know!
(and to the answer)...

As I indicated in the reviews, the sewing is a bit lacking. I am sending them to O'Neille to be re-stitched. Everything else about it is great. The fabric is almost bulletproof ( definitly english-proof!) and the pleats are still to this day straight and true, and I haven't pressed them in three months. Overall, I am extremely happy with the kilt. Even with the stiching coming out of the fell, once a belt is put on, there is no visible distinction between the sewn pleats and the one or two that have come undone.

I would definitly suggest that anyone looking for a great knock-around kilt, and even one that would be acceptable ( provided it is clean) to be worn with a PC or Argyle Jacket, pick up one of these.

Ouch.. Those things are expensive!!!

All things considered, they're a bargain. If the 16 oz 8 yard is a tank, these thinks are a tank regiment.

I'm really interested in the McDonald kilt. Are the colors right? I want one because I love the Monarch series. Kind of like having a piece of the show
So after all this time if you guys think this is a winner I'm going to order one

[auld argonian]

I second the question about the colors. Are they as bright as they seem in the photos of the Cameron and the MacDonald? Just that they seem a bit harsh and I was wondering if it was just the quality of the photo.

Best
