A quality kilt is a complicated garment to assemble, much to complicated for the sweat shop production lines of Hilfiger's "empire."

"Last year a documentary on "Life and Debt" in Jamaica showed as Tommy Hilfiger and Hanes benefited from the tax-free labor of Jamaican workers earning the equivalent of $30 every two weeks in the country's Free Trade Zones."

Or read CNN http://www.cnn.com/US/9901/14/sweatshops/

And from England http://www.ethicalmatters.co.uk/arti...e=Exploitation

Hilfiger is mentioned near the end of this article.

I grew up working in a sweatshop...for free...a famiy business then. Probably no where as bad as the overseas sweatshops, but I know what it is to be ten years old working hard in a factory.

So, sorry, anything Tommy Hilfiger has to say about kilts, made by craftsmen and factories who treat their employees fairly and pay them well, rings hollow.
