    I kind of like the tartan without the names and pictures. It has a nice earthy, worn look to it, kind of like a weathered tartan.

    I don't advertise without pay either.

    Maybe a fun idea, but that 'tartan' looks like a tablecloth...

    You know, it really would make a nice table cloth.

    I'd love to get that for Robertson as a gift for the next time I'm at Ferintosh, but £450 would be a little too much!
    It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom -- for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself.

    Got to agree. It would make a nice 'fun' kilt - but £450, that's not funny.

    I don't wear Guinness t-shirts or ball caps, why would I wear that?

    ...anyway...you could buy a good bit of whisky for £450.

    Best

    Chalk me up as another who does not wear commercial advertising. I don't even like a clothing company's label on my clothes.

    I also agree that I generally like the "tartan" of this kilt, but not enough to pay £450 where the are so many other kilts that I want at the moment. On the other hand, it would a be fun kilt to wear pubbing.
