What's a 'tank'?

[Riverkilt]

It is said Eskimos have hundreds of words for different types of snow.

For sure there's a difference between a machine sewn in Asia acrylic "kilt" and a 16 ounce wool kilt hand sewn by a member of the Kiltmaker's Guild in the traditional manner even using traditional thread to do the sewing.

I like the term 'Tank' for that top of the line hand sewn kilt. So many seemed bothered by it I started using "hand sewn" instead...but I do like "Tank."

A walk about any Highland Games will clearly show the difference.

There are cars, and there are cars. There are planes and there are planes. There are shoes and there are shoes.

I like the clarity of the word "Tank."

Me too. Plus it just kinda sounds right for describing them. Havent worn mine yet. Will Tuesday, hopefully. But from what I've seen "tank" describes them almost perfectly.
