Sooooo, why don't more Scots wear kilts?

[An t-Ileach]

Yes, the kilt could be worn more often in Scotland if cheap non-wool kilts like the small but splendid batch of acryllic kilts which Union Kilts recently issued become more readily available. The acryllic kilt looks convincing as a real kilt; all it needs is leather for the straps...

I agree. I think that Union Kilts may be on to something: as I posted a few days ago, I think that the BW I bought from them hangs better and feels better than the other cheap kilts I have - it looks right, whereas the others look a bit "skirty". More of the Union ones more readily available might well develop into something (and keeping in mind what was posted on Chris' earleier - and killed - thread).
