What is the fiber content? It looks like a mix of different synthetics.
--dbh When given a choice, most people will choose.
The description is "99% wool, 1% reflective" which I take it to mean it's all wool except for that single reflective thread in the weft. Not sure what that is made of. http://www.dashingtweeds.co.uk/shop/...ban-check.html

Didn't look at all like synthetic to me, so I checked! urban-check details l I rather like the name, and it seems very appropiate, the twin yellow lines signifing "no parking" on the grey/black mix to show the road surface, very clever

The reflective thread is probably nylon or microfiber poly filament.

I think it's magic, ... but a fine looking kilt, nonetheless.
I changed my signature. The old one was too ridiculous.
Great looking kilt, and I rather like the fabric. For someone who gets around mostly by walking it would be an added saftey feature at night! I have some guy lines on my tents made out of "Triptease" line which is retro-reflective when light shines on it. It lights up like a laser beam when a flashlight is shown on it to prevent tripping over the guy wires at night. I'll bet the thread in this kilt will do the same.

Woohoo! Now I can see the pics ... and now I want a kilt made with that material! This kilt-thing really is addictive; I thought wrist-watches and Scotch were bad ...

That is really cool... any safety-conscious too! ith:
