Isle of Skye and Firefighters PV!
Hey Guys,
We have 2 new tartans to add to our line of PV tartans (for our Casual and Semi Traditional kilts):
Isle of Skye &
Firefighters Memorial
The Firefighters Memorial will be the same price as the rest of our "standard" PV tartans and we will STILL be giving 15% of each kilt sold to the Leary foundation.
The Isle of Skye tartan will carry a $15 surcharge per kilt... the material costs us DOUBLE what standard PV tartans cost due to the special shades of colors used and the royalties paid to the designer (Rosemary). The $15 HELPS to vocer that cost (though it doesn't cover it entirely).
The tartans are NOT on the site yet, but we DO have the material in hand. You can always call an order in if you don't want to wait for me to take pics and get them on the site: 610.935.3444

O, please let me check my account balances and find an extra $300 . . .

The obscure we see eventually. The completely obvious, it seems, takes longer.

I think you'll find it somehow. 
Good luck there, Aldisimo.

The Isle of Skye has a fringed selvedge.
The Firefighters has (and ALWAYS will have) a Kilting Selvedge since it's a special weave and we're able to specify.

More options are always good. IOS should sell like hot cakes around these parts.
