    I've never associated a kilt with the Masons. My brother and step father are both Masons. Like a few others that have posted, I wonder if the women associated your kilt for the Masonic Apron.

    It boils down to lack of education and ignorance. This is something that, over time, can be remedied. I choose to educate my children in a fashion that is not exactly orthodox. I'm often asked why do I take them to Scottish festivals, SCA events, Folk music festivals and other such events. I do this for a lot of reasons, most of all I want them to have an appreciation for things they see, hear and learn at these events. If more people were willing to broaden their horizons and explore the world around them, learn from history, and cherish dieing arts, then I think the world would also be more tolerant and understanding.

    Any reason in particular not to buy from Masonic Themes?

    I believe you'll find your answer here (bad customer service from Viking Technology owned websites).

    Best regards,

    Thanks for pointing that out. That's too bad really, because I think a lot of people find those sites when looking for kilts and accessories, some of them first time buyers. If their service is that bad, it could turn a lot of people away from kilt wearing because they are concerned about customer service.

    The good news is, there are PLENTY of other places to buy from, even when it comes to Masonic kilt accessories.
