-Sport Kilt: "The Works" in Stewart Royal about the same as B&S in cost but in acrylic
-Carse of Gowrie (Ebay store): Prince of Wales tartan Interesting but PV? Wool? Shipping might take it over the budget
Or wait for Jerry to get a Royal Stewart/Standard in my size.
For the guys who have USAK's and kilts from Burnetts & Struth, is the cost and wait time worth it, for something I'm using as 'casual dress' at best?
Thanks again--note to self--always listen to the rabble ;-)
One last offering Frugal Corner? If you get the heavy weight, about like Sportkilts the Works for less $, in Acrylic easy care. Heck for the budget you could get the FC 16 oz and a companion 13 oz for the summer!
I have some of Jerry's, One that matches the FC 16 oz, and have ordered a B&S (13 oz wool). I am happy with them all, although I have noticed the SWK's are a lot lighter than the 16 Oz. Decisions Decisions! ith:
