Is Tweed Acceptably Traditional?

[CMcG]

<snip>So what say you, is tweed considered traditonal ? If not is it considered acceptable by traditionalists?

Given that the traditionalists have said that the fabric itself is a traditional choice for kilts -- though uncommon -- I think the other question is construction. If a tweed kilt is made in the same style as a traditional tartan kilt then OK. If it is made in some other way, then it would not be traditional.

And FWIW, in addition to M.A.C. Newsome and Ancienne Alliance, I believe Arlen, Hamish, and Redshank also have tweed kilts.
