Re: Need help identifying kilt maker
The tags in the photos are those most commonly found on kilts made in Pakistan of Acrylic and Acrylic/wool blends. They are sold by many outlets such as Heritage of Scotland and the other Gold Brothers shops.
Some things you need to know about.
Although often advertised as P/V the synthetic fabric used in most of these are actually Acrylic. P/V is a blend of Polyester and Rayon.
The weight of these fabrics is not always standard or may not use the standard way of measuring fabric weights that we use for kilts.
These can be very acceptable kilts. Here on X Marks we call them Pub Style Kilts. They are perfect for what they are sold as.
Now, to a more personal note.
Thomas H,
I'm sorry sir. You do not have a Freedom Kilt. You have a kilt made from the so called Freedom Tartan. I am Freedom Kilts and hold the copyright on that name. The companies in Pakistan who weave the Freedom Tartan do direct their outlets to advertise these kilts as "Freedom Kilts" but I'm afraid that this is not true.

I wear the kilt because: Swish + Swagger = Swoon.
