    King Kilts

    Has anyone had experience with King Kilts? I recently discovered their website at http://adamsweb.us/kingkilts/index.html

    They specialize in kilts for big and tall men, but also make them for more average-sized men as well as children and kilted skirts for women. Evidently their casual and traditioanl kilts are quite reasonably priced. They are located in Boise, Idaho, USA. Their standard kilt uses 4 to 5 yards of material, but they seem to be open to doing things the way customers want.

    Does anyone have info on their workmanship and ease of relating to them?

    The example illustrated on their website might be cause for caution....

    unless perhaps they've managed to work out some of their technical difficulties.

    I've seen that site before. There are a few things on there that were of concern to me. Rather than get into all that, I'll just simply say: they're attention to detail doesn't seem to be anywhere near what I would expect from a kilt maker. Of course, this is simply from the presentation of their site, not from experience with their product.
