canvas kilts
Has anyone seen or know anything about the "canvas kilts" at the scottish lion? I've been thinking about ordering one...thinking I'd like something other than my UK's to be able to wear to work. Sorry Rocky, I'm not wearing my wool trad. USAK to the machine shop.
I like the fact that they're pleated like a traditional kilt, but made of duck. And also not too terribly expensive.
Any input?

Hey Jeremy,
Please DON'T wear your Wool MacKinlay to the machine shop! I REALLY don't feel like trying to darn any holes in it.
While I know little about the Scotish Lion's canvas kilts, have you checked out Steve at Freedom Kilts? He's a bit more traditional (wider apron, deeper pleats, etc) than your UK and from what I've heard makes a great product. You may also want to check out Pittsburgh kilts... he's gotten a lot of positive comments on XMARKS.

I think the canvas kilts at Scottish Lion are Buzz Kidder kilts.
