As mentioned above, one question that arises from looking at the Ghillies in THOS is "why do all modern Ghillies have eight tabs?" because in THOS we see Ghillies with six, and four, tabs.
Here are six-tab Ghillies in THOS
Imagine my surprise when I saw for sale on Ebay not one, but two pair of Ghillies made in just that way.
Mind you, both pair have tongues which would have to be removed to be like traditional Ghillies.
And both are by high-end designer brands, not by Scottish firms that ordinarily make Ghillies.
Yet here they are!
