Government No. 1 vs 1A

[OC Richard]

this company (called “What Price Glory”) was selling Gordon, Seaforth, and BW kilts...

Just be aware that the WPG kilts aren't genuine ex-army kilts, nor are they made in the traditional way, nor are they made of proper kilting fabric.

They are made in Pakistan and/or India out of cloth that has a strange flimsy insubstantial waxy feel to it, quite unlike any UK, Irish, or North American wool I've ever felt.

Perhaps the good reviews are from people who don't have much experience with genuine vintage military kilts?

For the sage counsel....my only experience with this company was having seen a local pipe band here in Iowa that kitted themselves out in the repro WWI uniforms of a regimental band of the BEF that looked reasonably good, but I never really examined their kilt materials closely. Just recall the pipers being elated at the prices.
