As an aside, and as I've reported on X Marks before, my primary throwing kilt, which has seen MANY ridiculously hot and sunny days, is showing some significant color fading in the pleats. I'm not dreaming this up as the inside of the kilt is fine, and the underapron is fine. In all fairness, however, I think I'm the only person to ever report such an issue. It could be that this is sweat-induced fading rather than sunlight-induced. Others, including Steve Ashton have extensive experience with Marton Mills Polyester-Viscose and don't report any fading.
i have to say that if someone was looking for a kilt which has the traditional tartan look to it, but handles the vagaries of a rigorous outdoor life....throwing at the Games or backpacking.... this stuff is The Ticket.
JUST SPELL THE WORD RIGHT!! dammit!

Just please don't send me to prism for it, but I just had a vision of LEDs embedded in the pleats. I bet that would look interesting.
Back to the subject, I don't think PV photographs well. I just got a Scott Weathered casual from Rocky and the photos of the tartan don't do it justice.

Now that we know how to spell it, I'm wondering how it's pronounced. Just dawned on me that I've never heard anybody say it.
Does the first syllable rhyme with ice, kiss, eyes, or is? The second with coast or cost?

If I'm brazing brass and a hot droplet of silver falls onto my PV apron and it melts and runs, does that make it viscous Viscose?

It certainly does and if the viscous Viscose drips on your leg ... it becomes a vicious viscous Viscose .

The first rhymes with kiss and the second rhymes with toes.
