    Don't wear something like this... though it is a costume.



    I note that it costs $250... For that, you could have a quality real kilt.

    I particularly like the argyle socks.

    Why, it's the "Scottish Man" costume! Doesn't it look Scottish to you?!

    No; I believe the principle of "if it's nae Scottish, it's CRRRRRRRAP!" works in reverse as well (i.e. "if it's crrrrrrrrap, it's NAE SCOTTISH!").

    I saw something like that on clearance via an on line store called "scotsman in a box'. I think it even came with a mock-beer. It was the most horrendous thing. No wonder they were having to put it on clearance.
    What was the creator of this abomination thinking and more important what was the business thinking in ordering any of them?
    Well you won't find this muck in our shop and I would be hard pressed not to toss a bloke out if he had the gumption to walk into our coffeehouse in such a monstrosity.
