Probably so. But then again, probably not.



I am by no means wealthy, yet I do value quality garments, including Highland attire.
We're in the same boat. I also value Highland attire. I just can't afford it.

I also like Maseratti cars but I can not afford one, so I drive my trusty Toyota beater.


Are there those who look down their nose at the so-called "cheap" material -- yes, there are. But there are also those who do the same towards those of us who are more "traditional" in terms of our Highland kit. It goes both ways.

Well I am sure there are those who look down on those who buy expensive outfits, I just haven't seen them in this forum. I have seen comments the other way around though.

I guess my point was missed. I do wish I could afford a wool custom made tank, with a full polar bear mask sporran...but I can;t. I just don;t want to be looked down or commented down upo, of all places, in this very forum. Not just 'me', but all of us who do.

That's all.
