New Kilt From Frugal
I have purchased 2 different tartan fabrics at 2 different times and received them in about 7 days. I ordered the MASONIC kilt and it took about 4 weeks. I have another kilt on order and I did receive an e-mail that it has been ordered but there would be a delay.
The kilt is acrylic, like Stillwater, and is made in Pakistan. I believe this is where the delay is.
The problem I have with acrylic is that it is prone to fabric pulls because it is a looser weave than wool or polyv.
For the price it is a good kilt. If you are use to 'tanks' or good sturdy PV kilts (hello Rocky!) there might be some disappointment. But the 16oz acrylic from Frugal is good but at this point don't be in a hurry.
It will never replace a good wool kilt but for leisure or Saturday shopping and the price it's not bad in my opinion...
