    Question

    @ McMurdo and M.A. C. Newsome: To help those of us who may not know, what exactly from the photos told you they were skirts and not kilts?

    I thought they might be skirts from the length, but I wouldn't have been able to make a definate statement to that fact.

    Thanks,

    Kent

    Firstly the length is a giveaway, also the straps are the type that are commonly used on a kilted skirt, I've never seen a kilt with straps like that, but every kilted skirt I've ever seen from a shop like Hector Russell has those straps. Thirdly I have a kilt from Hector Russell and can say with certainty that the straps from one of their kilts are thicker than these.
