    A new style kilt

    A customer sent me this photo of a new style of kilt he saw in a store window in Nova Scotia.

    I posted the photo in the Random Kilt Gallery.

    Should we be worried?

    The photo you posted is too small and pixellated to see.

    It looks like a loincloth shaped like a tiny kilt. It's nothing new. And, yes, you should be worried.

    I am afraid I have to agree with Blu. The image is far too small even to make out what is in it! Sorry!

    I tried to digitally clean-it-up to bring out an image, to no success. You may need to use the original and convert it digitally for clarity and size.

    That's IS some mighty fine display glass though!

    From the description, I don't think it's worth the trouble. The thing has to be a joke.

    Yes, guys, it's a joke. Some store is selling loincloths that have a pleated plaid front panel.

    I posted a better shot of the new Nova Scotia kilt craze.
    Enjoy.

    Heck, you could wear that under your kilt and not worry about flashing. :P

    I've noticed that if you just search for "kilt" on ebay, those are about half of the items that come up.

    I think they're g-strings/thongs with the pleated covering on the front.
