What is the general opinion of UT Kilts?

[OC Richard]

I’m thinking about ordering one of their kilt jackets, but the price seems a little too good to be true. They say it’s 100% wool. I know you get what you pay for.

The thing about Pakistani kilt jackets is that they can be very nice, indeed tricky to distinguish from UK-made ones.

They also can be horrid.

What they do generally do is violate USA garment labelling laws. Here garments are required to state their fabric content, and the laws concerning wool and leather are quite specific.

Pakistani labels are, on the other hand, often nonexistent, or if they do exist are vague and/or misleading.

They'll say things like "acrylic wool". USA law requires specificity such as " outer shell: 60% polyester 40% wool".

So with Pakistani jackets you don't know what the fabric content is. People who know clothes tell me that the things they've seen labelled "wool" are actually a polyester-wool blend.

In any case I personally wouldn't buy a Pakistani jacket unless I could see it in person, feel it, and try it on.

I've seen Pakistani jackets that felt to be wool, looked to be well-made, and fit perfectly.

I've seen Pakistani jackets that had a strange flimsy waxy feel, looked a bit shoddily made, and had very strange proportions.

Just one note: you'll encounter Pakistani-made jackets which are stated to be made, and appear to be made, from genuine Harris Tweed. If it is indeed Harris Tweed then the fabric content is the one thing you don't need to worry about.
