    BCAC, $13 X 52 kilts = $676 And the clips on the Scotweb hangers are the standard heavy duty ones that dropped about 1/3 of my kilts. (You can tell by the clip handles - solid lines are standard, broken lines are heavy duty and the dot pattern are super duty. ) Cannibalizing a $0.71 hanger to make a 4 "super duty" clip hanger works out to $1.42 each or $73.84 for all my kilts.


    What's really aggevating is to pull out a kilt you want to wear only to find it slipped out of one or more clips and wrecked the pleats. My kilts get slid back and forth on the rods in the kilt closet, rubbing one against another. That is what slips the weaker clips and represses the wrinkled pleats into a train wreak.

    Pants is only a present tense verb here. I once panted, but it's all cool now.

    OK. I understand that it would be expensive for you with 52 kilts. As I said, I only own 4 kilts but they are all 8 yard heavy weight tanks and I've NEVER had one slip out of the clips?
