Burnetts-Struth casual kilt sale $165 US
Just got an email from Burnetts-Struth in Canada about their new website and some specials they are running right now. I have a 6 yd casual kilt in 16oz Locharron Strome Weathered MacDonald already on order from them from their old website. They are running a casual kilt sale (4-6yd) wool tartan in about 20 or so different tartans, many of which are not the typical commonplace tartans you see everyday. They are listed at $199 plus $15 s/h but that is canadian dollars, and with the exchange rate at 0.82 it actually tabs out at around $163US for the kilt and $12US for the shipping. Not a bad deal if you are in the market for a decent quality machine sewn casual kilt in nice wool tartan. Here is the link to the page:

Ooooh... This is VERY tempting! Any idea what the weight of the tartan is? Can't seem to find it mentioned on the site. Am guessing it would be 13oz...

Before you judge someone be sure to walk a mile in their kilt.
That way you are at least a mile away and you have their kilt...

My Dress MacDonald is from their Casual Kilt sale, it is 16oz, best thing to do is get in contact with them they are very helpful. Here is my review of it:

I ordered mine from the previous website listing which I believe said all were 16oz Lochcarron Strome, although I could be wrong. Email them at their contact info and ask, and you can check ot see if they might have a particular tartan you are interested in that might not be listed. Nice folks, easy to deal with. Good communications too.

Next kilt ordered. Thanks for the heads-up, FM. I've been meaning to get a kick-around kilt and this is the best opportunity.

I will shoot them an email right now... Yep, I saw that Ulster too ;) I've a weathered Ulster tank en route as we speak. This would compliment nicely...
Great to hear they are good to deal/communicate with too! That means a lot.
