We are all going to have our own opinions sir, my opinion is that a cheap kilt does nothing to honour my heritage, therefore I am not interested in collecting them.

To many people on the forum the chief motive to wearing the kilt is for comfort, by and large I find this to be an American attitude, for me and many others the chief reason for wearing the kilt is heritage so buying a "kilt" from the likes of the Gold Brothers or for that matter any shops carrying "tartan tat" is not my cup of tea.

One other thing that I think bears repeating at this juncture:

Advice for every kilt wearer
"The Highland dress is essentially a 'free' dress -- that is to say, a man's taste and circumstances must alone be permitted to decide when and where and how he should wear it... I presume to dictate to no man what he shall eat or drink or wherewithal he shall be clothed." -- The Hon. Stuart Ruaidri Erskine, The Kilt & How to Wear It, 1901.
