    Need Help For Friend

    Hi everyone!

    I have a friend looking for a kilt. He got hit with heavy bills but is looking for a nice wool kilt for a low price. Is anyone willing to sell one cheap or know anyone looking to sell an old one. He’s a 44W 24 drop.

    Hope everyone is having a great summer!

    He has ties to Bruce, Stewart, Home, Lamont, Gunn, Maclachlan and my step family is Buchanan

    But he’s looking for anything dressy and nice

    He should take a look at Ebay. With a 44" waist he may find some good kilts at low prices.

    A kilt in any of the tartans can be dressy and nice. Sorry if this sounds snarky, it is just the truth.

    Oh no. I totally agree. Doesn’t sound it at all. He was just curious if anyone has one in those tartans.

    A bit of an update, so to speak. The widow wants to see the late husband's kilt being worn by someone locally and is of the same Clan. Sorry about that but just anyone, however nice they may be, wearing the kilt without being a member of the Clan is not acceptable to her. I have to say that that thought does not surprise me.

    Totally understandable. That’s how I feel about my clan tartan. It’s a respect thing for sure!
