Name that kilt

The Ladies at Freedom Kilts decided that we need a new model of kilt.
One to appeal to our younger customers.
This kilt has all the features of the other Freedom Kilts with the following changes.

1) Designed to be worn low and long.
2) Although fully tapered the Fell is not sewn down.
3) There are three or five snaps on each side of the Aprons for adjustability.
4) There will be Cargo Pockets available which will snap off.
5) The price will be in the $125.00 $145.00 cdn range.
Here are some pics.







We loaned the prototype to the lead singer of a local metal band. He loved it.

Here is Sever.





Now the problem ---- We don't know what to call it.

The Ladies have suggested The Industrial Model. After the style of music.

I like The LaL Model. For Low and Long.

Any other suggestions.

I wear the kilt because: Swish + Swagger = Swoon.

How 'bout "Thighless?" Will there be any other colors? Perhaps this one could be called "HighSkyBlue"

I agree with your gals, name it the "Industrial."

I would wear that, just have to have a sewn down fell and at the top of the knee.

How about "Indie," usually for "independent" (as in films or bands), but which also evokes "industrial"?

The "Indie Freedom Kilt."

Regards,

The Indie would be cool. But in that color, a refernece to Carolina would be appropriate!

Regardless of what the name ultimately is, let me be amongst the first to say that I want one!
