How to promote Kilts

[possingk]

I have always thought the same thing, my thought has always been to get together a couple grand (2,000 for PV fabric, 10 USA Casual = 1100) and have fabric woven for a passionate sports city, and see how it went. First I would have to have $3000 laying around that I don't mind losing. Quite frankly I don't have $300 to get a kilt made in the US tartan I have sitting next to me, so it won't happen for me anytime soon. The point of this is to have someone pick up the idea if they like it, just send me a kilt for the idea ;-). I think if it was to be done PV would be the way to go. The teflon would allow for beer spills and stuff you would get on them at a sporting event.

I have actually taken my black stillwater, and sewed a Buffalo Sabres patch on it and got very good responses when I was back in Buffalo a while ago, so it could work. I give credit to Jeff from Pittsburgh Kilts for this idea, he was a true visionary, I still wish I got one of his kilts before he left.

This would be another way to go as well, instead of the tartan find solid color kilts and modify them to your favorite team, with patches and pins and such. Mooshead sells wool kilts in solid colors that would work well for football season. If I had the money I would get a Navy one for my beloved Buffalo Bills, sew a patch on it and have one for each of my home town teams. These would be pretty pricey and you would have to worry about washing them, due to the fact that they are wool, and have to be dry cleaned. I have been at Bills games, it would be quite a challenge to keep it clean enough.

The ultimate team apparel would be either Freedom Kilts , R-Kilts or Union Kilts, again more than $100, but if they have the color of your team, it would be warm and have pockets for you to be able to tailgate. For the Steelers, get one in black, get some MacLeod tartan flases some white sockes and a Steeler's jersey you are all set. With cargo pockets you could probably even carry a few beers around with you.

Good luck in your mission, I hope it works out great.
