    Couldn't resist because this website actually thinks that they are selling kilts....silly Germans, kilts are for Scots. I especially like the use of mannequins. I do have to admit, the shirts are a nice twist on the traditional jacobite shirt.





    For the curious, here's the main page on the website that these pics came from:

    Unless it's also pleated at the "rear" one might be tempted to think it is on the wrong way around.

    Well there is a school of thought that Celts are descended from the Germanic tribes of central europe who migrated to the islands...

    Seriously though, those "kilts"(and I use the term lightly) are quite horrible. Perhaps if they made some sort of effort to line up the sett in their pleats it wouldn't look so bad but I'd rather wear pants than those things.

    There is? That school must be out. The ancestors of the Celts, for the most part, came up the Atlantic shoreline from the Iberian peninsula, where they had been waiting out the last Ice Age, according to Y chromosome DNA. Theirs is haplogroup R1b. The ancestors of the Germans tended to be in the Balkans at that time. Their haplogroup is I. See http://www.roperld.com/HomoSapienEvents.htm
