    So whats wrong with a $50.00 kilt, or any kilt under $400.00/ I work hard for the money I get, after taxes, bills, groceries, and neccessities. there is darn little money for frivolities. It must be nice to be wealthy.

    I'm not registered for the Scotsman so can't post a comment but I'm surprised nobody's fed the troll in the first post which looks like a wind-up by someone in the Scotsman office in the hope of drumming up some comments. Real Scotsmen don't need to wimp out by wrapping themselves in trousers.

    It is because of people like Rocky that people like me start wearing kilts... First time experience.

    Same here. My first kilt was an inexpensive kilt aimed at the entry market. This was just to see if the kilt was for me. I have since ordered two kilts in 16oz wool from the tartan museum. As a consumer, I want to know where a product is manufactured. When my wife and I were in Scotland two years ago, we spent a fair amount of tourist dollars on the royal mile. It wasn't till we got home that we found about half of our purchases were made in Asia. This was disappointing to us as these were meant as Christmas gifts for others.

    This whole thing reminds me of the movie "A Few Good Men"

    Lt. Kaffee - "I want the truth!"
    Col. Jessep - "You can't handle the truth!"
    "A veteran, whether active duty, retired, national guard or reserve, is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to "The United States of America", for an amount of "up to and including my life." That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it." anon
