This time brought to you by Museum "Replicas". I found this kilt advertised as "SCOTTISH MANS WOOL KILT". I'll ignore the grammar errors and move onto the deceit.

That...thing you see above is what they're passing off as a wool kilt. Unfortunately it is made of ACRYLIC wool. In my opinion, if it doesn't come from a sheep, it is not wool. Plus, look at that apron! Holy cow, is that disgusting. But at least the price is right. $38.

They have "another" kilt that they sell, but it actually the same kilt as before, just a different tartan:

This one, however, does not mention what it is made out of. It simply states that it is an "EARLY KILT".

I'm so sick of cheap pieces of $#!t being passed off as kilts. Go ahead, call me a snob. I don't care. Why is it so much to ask that my heritage be treated with respect? No, folding up a tablecloth and selling it as a kilt is not respectful. I don't care if it lead people to wearing real kilts, these things are stupid. I'm not saying that only tanks should be allowed, because I know a lot of great makers and vendors that sell budget kilts, but these kilts, the bottom-of-the-bin pieces of tat really tick me off.

AND people seem to be either too stupid or too lazy to even educate themselves about kilts. There's examples all over these boards of people showing up at the Highland Games with backwards kilts, basting stitches still in, too low, too high, or screwed up some other way. Seriously, how hard is it to take the .039 seconds that Google needs to find a picture of a kilt being properly worn? The sheer ignorance, and then arrogance of people, really make me worry. Correcting them is no good because "they're Scottish and this is how kilts are supposed to be worn."

But I guess complaining about it is kind of silly now, seeing as how the Gold Brothers are the new Kings of the Edinburgh Mile. Ugh.
