I was going to try to quote, but gave that up as a bad job.

By "tank" I am referring to the one kilt if you are going to spend your stash on.. It has to be right.

I have other kilts. This one one would be the "dream kilt"

I have read all the threads.... It is kinda like a gun magazine... they never met a kilt(gun) they didn't like.

This is to be my dress kilt. I will own more... but not this nice.

The Brown tartan is rare,(in regards to production) Celtic croft will make me a trad for $725... fat tax included... Is this my best optiion?

I hope you see my quandry...Other than $25 non-trads, no kilt maker gets a bad review around here.
This will be my only shot at this.... I have grandchildren that will need money for education. I really need to get this right the first time.

Josh at NeoKilts will get my money again, as will Jerry at Stillwater, the folks at UK will even see me again... But this kilt... It needs research. This is my first step on the path....

Ye ken I can nae afford to fook it oop?
