    Complaint with USA Kilts
    I don't mind a USAK badge being sewn on the casual and philabeg kilts.
    As a businessman I understand the need to advertise.

    But I am sorry, but I have been compelled to remove the badge from the kilt, reason...it's a little too large!!

    Can you make smaller ones?

    Graham,

    I'm starting to think you may have too much time on your hands. :)

    Colin,
    With the number of posts that Graham has and seeing this picture, I know that he has way too much time on his hands :roll: :lol: :wink:

    Ah! so this was the project you hinted at :wink:

    Was it a straight a swop sign for kilt barter?

    I bet postage will cripple you.If not the postman. :lol: :lol: I know send it by Fax :lol:

    Actually, that one patch is what keeps me from considering a USAKilt. I would buy one in a second if I knew I could get one minus patch.

    Instead of patch, how about a free teeshirt?

    Seriously. I LOVE the Highland Grey tartan. And I love the look of the kilts. But that banana yellow patch makes me wince. :?

    Rocky, if you read this, you have a customer willing to buy if you can do this.

    WOW Graham! I knew you were working on that, but I am still shocked. Rocky is going to love that!

    Does that Shield come with a Claymore?

    Dr.D:

    There's a thing called a seam ripper, or a small knife, or scissors that will easily remove the patch from the apron. They're not applied with epoxy... just a simple straight stitch. Go slow and it's a breeze!

    Don't let a patch deter you from buying a kilt! :shock:

    But doing that would be like scribbling a mustache on the Mona Lisa.

    It is good to know they are not epoxied or otherwise permanately fixed.

    Once tried to remove brand label from a pair of pants. Lost whole back pocket.

    Good to know, but, still feel like I would be defacing something. I don't mind ravaging a pair of trousers, but, doing anything to injure a kilt would be a terrible thing indeed. :!:

    You know, there are kilt makers out who won't force you to advertise for them and their kilts are made without any patch.
