This forum started up just as the world was being introduced to all sorts of new ideas about how to make a kilt and how to market them.
Since our beginnings we have been faced with the cunudrum of how to treat these newer types and styles of kilt.

There is one thing that this forum is very good at. That is the passing on of information. Sometimes that information can be seen as positive and sometimes negative.

We have been trying to inform each other for years that just because a kilt is advertised as, for example - "Heavy weight P/V" that the truth may be something different.
We have been telling people for years that there is only one reputable weaving mill producing kilt-worthy true P/V. That the correct meaning of P/V is - fabric made of a blend of Polyester and Rayon. That the one weaving mill produces only one weight and it is 12oz per linear yard.

I don't think anyone here honestly thinks that getting people into kilts is a bad thing. I do think that the majority will agree that the marketing used to sell some kilts can be misleading to the uninformed.

That is what makes this forum so important. Why we all need to pass along the word that this forum is here, is available to anyone who wishes to wear a kilt, and is full of honest and factual information.

It is this forum that has been informing people that the labels as shown in the opening post of this thread are the ones used by the myrid of kiltmakers based in Sailkot, Pakistan. (at my last count over 150 of them) That the majority of these kilt are woven of an Acrylic fiber. That these kilts are different from a 'Tank'. Not necessarily better or worse, but different.

It should not matter that one of our members buys one of these kilts. It should not matter, as long as they are informed and know what they are buying.
What does matter is that too often the uninformed buy these because the do not know from the labels or the sales pitch what they are really getting for their hard earned dollar.

We really need to stop fighting among ourselves and do what we do best. Pass on honest and factual information in a respectful and friendly way.

We need to recognize that some of our members want and would like a kilt that costs less than $100.00 so they can go to the pub and not need to worry if it gets a beer spilled on it, or while mowing the lawn on a really hot sticky day. We need to accept that the less expensive alternative to a Tank is a viable garment for many of our members, their intended use, their lifestyle and budget.

As long as they are informed! As long as they know what they are buying and are happy with their kilt. That really is the only thing that is important.

The OP of this thread asked a valid question. The label in his kilt did not state the manufacturer. He liked the kilt and wanted to know where he could get another one. We should have given him the information.
