Really, thanks for this thread, man, I'm one of those who just don't have a drop of scottish blood. Even that I bought my kilt and weared it proudly.

I am one of those who discovered here that my kilt is not at all "a tank". It is almost black, and no way it's an 8 yards. Even I can suspect if it's an 9 oz.,... although James Pringle says it's pure wool,... and it's warm enough for our mediterranean mild temperatures. Even that I'm proud of wearing it

I am one of those that discovered here there's a tartan over there suitable to be used as "my tartan", and with that, I get the dream of having some day that dreamed kilt, an 8 yards, pleated to the line,13 or 16 oz. pure wool kilt on the Valencia tartan. It will cost me a fortune, and maybe years,... but I know it will be mine some day. And I want that to feel proud again.

One more time.... thanks for making me feel proud, man.

¡Salud!
