    Question

    I don't mean to hijack this thread but it made me think again about something I have wondered about before, but never seen discussed;

    What if any, are anyone's thoughts, or any known customs regarding, Highland attire for the deceased? If you preplanned your funeral, would you want to be dressed in your finest?

    Oh God no! The Kilt costs too much to be buried!

    Besides, I plan on cremation.

    Also, I would want them to display the kilt at the memorial and then give it to my son and daughter. Not that they could wear it, but as a reminder of the heritage.

    I agree with Ramsay- If I'm buried in a kilt it will most likely be a USA or Stillwater kilt cuz my Cameron tank will be left to my family.
