Just wanted to try a lower cost plain one first to see if this might stick (also couldn't find the clan tartan, Keith, in a lower cost fabric.)
Don't worry, everyone asks that question.

From the FAQ section:

"A 'TANK' is defined as an eight-yard, wool, hand-sewn, traditional kilt. ie., "It's built like a tank." (coined by Jimmy Carbomb c.2005)"
