Graeme of Arizona Kilts showed me this article last week except his print-out had a couple pics of the price tags. On these price tags they were not only using the old sales ploy of showing the "original" price & then the "marked down to" price to make you think you were getting some great bargain, but very deceptively the tag said, "Fashioned in Scotland". Notice, not "Made in Scotland", but "Fashioned in Scotland" - in other words, they're trying to deceive people into believing this is a kilt made in Scotland when in reality it most likely was made by some poorly paid woman or child in Pakistan. (Can you say sweat-shop?)

What a shame that these cheap knock-offs are hurting the Scottish kilt industry, as the last 2 paragraphs show, but that this would be taking place on Scotland's most prestigious boulevard, the Royal Mile, is tragic & a travesty!
