Hi Gang,

In addition to their other sites, the Gold Bros own:

www.TheWeeScottishShop.co.uk
www.Kilt-Shop.com
These sites also sell on ebay under the name "Susan".

You can form your own opinion on Gold Bros, I'm just letting you know who you're dealing with.

Cheers, ColMac

They're like cockroaches.

They don't even take the time to take new pictures. Are they looking for false competition?

More like sand gnats or skeeters. Cockroaches don't suck blood.

I love how the one page defines the word kilt, as if that's the minimum standard for what they have to produce to legally call it a kilt.

"General Definition Of A Kilt

The kilt, as referenced above, is a tailored garment which is wrapped around the wearer's body at the waist, hanging down encircling and covering the upper part of the legs above the knees. The fabric is cut so that it is open along a line from the waist to the lower edge (the selvedge on a kilt) with the opening being secured by means of straps and buckles.
The two ends of the kilt fabric overlap considerably to form what are called aprons. These aprons are positioned in the front while the remaining length of the fabric (around the sides and in the back) is pleated.
In addition, the kilt exhibits certain peculiarities of design, construction, and convention which differentiate it from other garments fitting the above description"
Quoted from their website.

Take a look at the discription they give about themselves at kilt-shop.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
The Kilt-Shop is a friendly scottish company & we have been trading for many years.

We offer a fantastic selection of Scottish kilts, tartan travel rugs, tartan scarves, official Scotland rugby shirts, musical instruments, suits of armour and a whole load of interesting gifts.
--------------------------------------------------------------------

1. What do they mean with many years?
2. The selection is wide, but to call it fantastic might be pulling it a bit far.
3. Should we really buy kilts from a company that also sells souvenirs, armour and "interesting gifts"?

I just can't help it; I can't chose between laughing and crying.

If ya laugh hard and long enough you'll do both!

Trading under so many different names yet selling all the same stuff at seemingly the same prices one wonders what they have to hide...

Too many people been warned off "Heritage of Scotland" perhaps?

or they have too many kids who are getting older and all want their own branch/store.

IE, it would be like if I had my hot sauce store set up in a town, and my son wanted to do the same and split off to open his own store across town or in the next down down the road.

Or they are greedy. either way.
