    Wool kilts vs. Cotton Jeans

    Is 2011 the year wool / PV kilts make a come back?

    following a chain of events among major Asian cotton producers that has choked off global supply.

    The price of raw cotton reached 90 cents a pound this year, up from the 40 or 50 cent average,...

    So come January, besides paying more for cottonwear, there may be one more side effect for consumers - the comeback of polyester. Or rather, poly-cotton.
