    Do you purchase your kilts directly from Lochcarron or do you go through a vendor? If direct, how do you do so? If through a vendor, what vendor?

    I have always purchased my kilts through a vendor. That vendor is The Scotland Yard because they have very good prices for traditional kilts. I tried to purchase directly from Loch Carron once and told me it's best to go through a vendor.

    The quality is actually very good, but a Sportkilt and a traditional kilt are not even in the same league when comparing them. It's like asking about the quality of a Schwinn bicycle, how will it compare to your BMW motorcycle.
