An HBC for your favorite lass

While jonesing for my FK ... (hint hint hint) I happened across the HBC website looking for a shirt of any type that might go with such a kilt (again, hint hint hint ... Steve).
I didn't find much but while looking at other stuff I found this:

There's another next to it on the page but I like the look of this one.

CT - I neeeeeeed more kilts

That tartan doesn't look like this one???

Pleats in the front and a smooth look in the back? I guess that works for skirts, but are they sure?

I always thought the main difference, besides the fall of the material on male vs. female was the two buckles being left or right.

Looks like it could be a HBC Dress tartan. We do know how to dress up, up here in the Great White North

. Take off, Hoser.

No dooot aboot it, eh?

Was gonna say the same thing about being an HBC 'dress'. Also, i've seen that on the East Coast many 'women's kilts' are all the 'dress' version of a tartan.

Yea, that's the Dress version of the HBC. I've seen it in person and somehow it just doesn't have the class of the regular one. But hey, girls get to do what ever they want.

Hmmm...I feel another cause coming on. Okay...we reclaimed unbifurcated from women but they're still holding out on smooth back peated front.

Why oh why oh why can't men also have a smooth kilt backside to sit on with the pleats in the front? A lot less worry about wrinkled pleats.

The kilts probably wouldn't swish as much but sitting would be a LOT easier....common sense....am I right or what??

Never mind tradition, lets grab a handful of common sense and lean over the edge of the envelope and explore the possibilities....

Sorry, Ron, I have to disagree. I'd rather see a smooth behind on a lady than ANYTHING that shows a man's rear ANY day of the week! I'm perfectly content having men's rears hidden by pleats!

;)

Ah, HBC - I actually worked for them two summers ago. Never again.

And frankly, I'm with Casper on this one...

Yeah maybe we don't care to see a mans rear but the ladies do.
