    Agreed, Check out Amerikilts, Renegade Kilts, R-Kilts, and there are many more who make unique kilted garments.

    Basically here we have only one basic definition of a kilt, which is at it's root, a "Skirt" with a pleated back, and aproned front (under and over apron, or at least some over apron).

    Now this is my basic definition, and it fits most likely 90+% of what others here understand a kilt to be, both as it changed through history, and it's modern counterparts.

    There are some here who would not consider the "original" Utilikilt to be a "kilt" by definition, though the style changed to easily fit that definition.

    There is always room for different ideas, and this is a very open place to "throw them out there" because we will respond honestly, though some with "tongue in cheek" and others with a note of sarcasm, but not purposefully with ill intent.

    Welcome to the board, by the way!

    kilts are not just the hand sewn, custom tailored, Scottish origin, 9 yard, fully accessoried, 500.00 stuff of the games.
    I don't think anyone here has said that.

Any info/experience with these guys would be appreciated.

    "Acrylic wool". When a vendor uses double-talk like that, I would pass without hesitation.

    I think Mr.Braveheart has a a grugde for this vendor as it it the only thing he post's about,

    all neg as well , the feedback he shows is so small it not worth it,

    Me i think he hates them , might a another aust klit vendor? himself,,

    I have ordered from them and will post a reviwe next week when i have the goods and some time, will compare them to my two SWK (thirty and standard)
