The only real thought I have to offer on the subject is this- you can get a USA Kilts semitrad or two casuals, custom tailored for you in tartan, for only a few dollars more than one off the rack UK. You can almost get 2 Amerikilts for the cost of one UK. You can get a custom tailored Flamingo Kilt for a lot less than one off the rack UK. What's the selling point of the expensive off the rack Utilikilt again...?
