Slanj weathered Dress Stewart ex-hire!

[Kid Cossack]

My hams are just a bit too, umm, meaty, but for some of our skinnier brethren, how does an ex-hire weathered Dress Stewart grab you?

At 99 pounds sterling no less!

I sent my skinny brother that link. He might be interested, at that price.

without highjacking the thread too much, does anybody know is Slanj (the company) own Slanj the tartan? Or is Slanj a family name of some sort?

The Web site says "our own exclusive" or similar words.
www.tartans.scotland.net says:
Scottish Tartans World Register: Slanj
Slanj, The 2832 Created for a specialist Highlandwear retail firm.

I have a vision of cloves in a Slanj tartan tank, pleated to the stripe.

How about Slanj being the phonetic sound of the Gaelic for "Health (to you)", sort of an all round blessing.

Or else, with the usual spelling, people walk by and call the store "slain tea" which sounds like a poisoned drink.

The full phrase is probably registered, I know that there's a very good Canadian Celtic band with that name.

Not all Scots wear kilts and not all read Gaelic, sorry about that.

Sorry, to get back on thread.

The video on the minikilt thread shows that store. It looks very professional and I wouldn't be afraid to deal with them if the price was right.

Ask them about your girth and their off-hire. Probably a good way for you to get a good deal.
