I need some advice...
Ok, so I guess the best place to start is to admit that I don't know where to start when it comes to kilts. I'm not actually Scottish, nor is Scotland my ancestral homeland. All the same however I love Scottish (and Irish) culture very much. Me and My friends are mostly Slavic, but we all play Irish folk music, the stuff rules. Everything about you Celtic people is amazing. In any case I have come to a rather bizarre dilemma in my love for Scottish and Irish culture. The fact of the matter is I want to get a nice, traditional Scottish Kilt, the problem is however that I simply don't know where to start. As I already admitted, I am not a part of any Clan, nor do I have any ancestry that would grant me membership of any Clan. So my problem I guess is, how do I go about getting a traditional Kilt, without taking a given Clan's Tartan? I understand that there is hundreds upon hundreds of different Tartans, and I don't want to accidentally buy a kilt and find out later that the Tartan belongs to a Clan that I am most certainly not a member of. I feel like I would be insulting and just plain stupid to do so. Furthermore, where would the best place to get a kilt be? Any help anyone can offer would be greatly appreciated.
