    Well, they look OK on the ladies but apart from that, I think they would look terrible, even as their "Doggy Kilt" line!

    That said, they do have nearly 700 happy customers and no dissenters, according to their ratings.

    You're right, they do look good on the ladies but I can't imagine anyone spending £300 on one and can you imagine trying to keep it clean?

    They look like a used surgery apron on the ladies and a cultic (not celtic) priest's robe on the men

    I've seen these before, that same advert, never one in person.

    To my eye they're not hideous. But I can't imagine their purpose. Is a patriotic Englishman really going to wear a KILT to an international football or rugby match?? Talk about sending mixed signals!

    England supporters are usually something like...



    Then, strangely, spitfires got included with the Crusader thing



    and I guess these people are representing the old Danelaw



    but no kilts

    Skilt does them. There's a Union flag, a St George's cross, and (oddly enough) a Mexican flag.
