Welcome to the forum!

Wow! Thanks for the warm welcome!
Don't laugh, but I have seen this term all over and don't know exactly what type of kilt it refers to, "tank". Any explanation would be appreciated. And by the way, someone mentioned an aversion to tartans. Definitely not. Just wanted to try a lower cost plain one first to see if this might stick (also couldn't find the clan tartan, Keith, in a lower cost fabric.)

Don't worry, everyone asks that question.

From the FAQ section:

http://www.xmarksthescot.com/forum/f...q#faq_faq_abbr

"A 'TANK' is defined as an eight-yard, wool, hand-sewn, traditional kilt. ie., "It's built like a tank." (coined by Jimmy Carbomb c.2005)"
