I like the trousers they have too (rabble forgive me)

Although the "pirate pants" are just Man Capris.

so I just saw this kilt highlighted in this month's Ukitarian newsletter.

I gotta hand it to Blakladder. I think I might be able to fenagle one of these puppies for a good price!

My father owns a Woodcraft retail store. He deals directly with Blakladder. I have their work vest and LOVE it. I actually called them up and said hey I was wondering if I could get a deal, this is what I am doing with it; I told them about the mission trip I was going on to mexico to build houses. they were super nice and gave me a vest, t-shirt, pants, and knee pad inserts. for a really great price.

I gotta go and inquire about the kilts now!!!!

You've got to hand it to Utilikilts for making favorable mention of another company's product in their own newsletter including a picture and a link.

Here's what they wrote:

A Swedish Kilt On The Market

The Blåkläder kilt
Our inboxes have been flooded with people telling us about a new kilt from Swedish work-wear company Blåkläder. These guys have been doing hardcore work clothing since 1959, and have a pretty revolutionary view of cargo pockets, knee pads, and construction techniques. It took me a bit to get used to their design quirks, but now I totally get it.

Recently, they took their cargo pockets and heavy duty cotton fabric (dock cloth? denim? hard to tell…) and made a work kilt.

I don’t know anyone who has tried one of these babies on yet, but judging from the photos, it looks like a great addition to the Men’s Unbifurcated Garments (MUGs) category!

Best regards,

Jake

With that kind of name, Rowan Atkinson keeps on coming to mind!

Blåkläder, Blåkläder, are Swedish and not Scots
Blåkläder, Blåkläder, how clever are their plots!
