    Hi P1M

    They may well be popular...but the one I had from Get Shirty (and I assume that the quality of it was similar to the ones you mentioned) was poor....the material 'pilled' after a couple of wearings. The stiching was grim and the fabric was just soooo uncomfortable...made me sweat like f***.
    As many of us have said you get what you pay for.

    Get Shirty stock loads of really great (and good quality, value for money)things and I've always been pleased with anything I've bought there. (except that 'fake' kilt)

    If any of the guys visit Edinburgh....do pay them a visit, it's a great wee shop.

    This is the Saltire Jumper I bought from them a good few years ago (about £25)...WELL worth its money...been washed countless times and still looks new.
