Don't think you will be getting an 8 yard worsted wool kilt for a fraction of the cost. You will however get a good kilt that will look great at rugby matches, the pub, etc.
Enjoy, the kilt is addictive.
Like I said, to my untrained eye.
I was around people this weekend of all kilt types. I hung out with a guy with a $700.00 Scots made kilt, and he had trouble telling the difference. In fact he made a stab at some of the cheaper kilts, thinking that I was in on the gag. I had to tell him that I didn't have on a Scottish kilt. He was shocked. I will post pics soon. I just think there is a bit of snobbery that comes along with some people within this community. Like I said, I have tried on the real deal, and what SWK sells is good enough for me at the moment.
Peace.
