    Dormie Kilt

    I have purchased a Dormie Kilt, but cannot find any information on who made it, what it's made of, etc. I was hoping some if our learned brethren could enlighten me on it, other than the fact that Dormie rents them, and it is probably ex-hire.
    Thank you!
    Particulars;
    8 yards
    Royal Stewart
    24" drop
    Waist 30
    3 leather buckles

    Well, as Dormie Kilt come from Dunfermline, I would think that it would be wool. More than that I can't say or guess.

    Regards
