    I guess if it helps get more gents into kilts, that's a good thing.

    Any idea what they look like or are made of?

    Interesting development. I'm for anything that lowers the barrier to kilt wearing, but I can imagine there might be some unhappiness.

    Now if we could get stores to stock them in the US, that would be something.

    Best regards,

    At that price they are almost certain to be either acrylic or lightweight polycotton.
    Though if it gets more guys into kilts it can be no bad thing.

    Are these the inflammable kilts? I have heard of disposable clothing, but self-destructing kilts could be a severe blow to one's assets!:blue_ban:
