    As long as it is made like a kilt is made I think it is way cool. I wish you could have gotten pleat shots. Maybe later huh? The pattern is unmistakenly recignizable as American. I like it

    I think it looks really cool.
    I have always tempered my killing with respect for the game pursued. I see the animal not only as a target but as a living creature with more freedom than I will ever have. I take that life if I can, with regret as well as joy, and with the sure knowledge that nature's ways of fang and claw or exposure and starvation are a far crueler fate than I bestow. - Fred Bear

    It's based on a trade blanket pattern...there are several mills in North America that make such fabric, including perhaps the most famous, Pendleton Woolen Mills, here in Oregon. I am also curious how they addressed the pleats.

    I oufit many of my kilts with NA-themed pins to honor that side of my family.

    Yup, I like it. I'm not sure I would wear it myself, but I definitely think it looks good.
