Poly-viscoes by the yard

**MacHenderson** · 9th May 07, 03:08 PM

Anyone know where to get it? I've looked and looked, and can't find anyone who sells pv tartan by the yard.

Ask and you shall receive.
It's the 11 oz. Balmoral line. Just a heads up, they don't offer the Henderson tartan. Nobody keeps the Henderson tartan in PV.

Sport kilt carries henderson ancient in pv, but I figured it would be improper to ask where they get it from. But still, Gunn or Blackwatch will work just fine. Thanks cousin.
Oh hey, are you signed up as a registered member of clan henderson? My dad sent in the app a few weeks ago, and we're pretty eager to hear back from them.

Sport Kilt ISN'T PV, it's something else.

Just noticed this (I'm bad about not following back up on all of my posts.) Yes, I am. Member number 3495.

It says right on their front page that they use poly/viscos.

I was under the impression that Sportkilt used a polyester cotton blend and not the same polyviscose that's produced by marton mills.

YOUR RIGHT!!!!
"We are constantly striving to improve our product, and are proud to be promoting the Celtic heritage. We also offer you the largest selection of poly-viscose fabric in clan tartans as well as universal (open) tartans."

They must have changed that in the last while.
They used to be cotton and a poly/cotton or acrylic material.
(I no longer have any, so I can't read any tags)

Could one not approach an established kilt maker to purchase material?

Count the # of tartans they offer against "other kilt companies" (

) that offer PV tartans and tell me who has the most tartans on hand.

As someone else pointed out... all PV is NOT created equal. The MM stuff is the best by far.
