So are all of us here at XMTS wearing all sorts of tartans then. Whether we are affiliated with a group or not.
Again, if 99.999% of the people have no idea what a Polaris even is, I still fail to see the argument of people 'claiming' to be anything.
I certainly am not a Soldier nor claim to be one but I sure am proud of my Black Watch kilt.
I am not a Marine nor have I been but the Leatherneck tartan sure looks good on me.
I'm not fond of this particular Polaris tartan but if someone likes it, by all means wear it.
Agreed, that is why I am anxiously waiting for the day when I can save and justify enough money to have my own Young Tartan kilt made.
My apologies for not being clearer; let me just say up front that my opinions on tartan symbolism are my own personal beliefs. I only hold myself to them, no one else. I am certainly not applying them to you personally.
I am just offering "food for thought" from a traditionalist point-of-view.
Again, apologies for the misunderstanding.
Todd
