Well, "best deal" is a very relative term. Despite being a Scot--and a bivocational pastor with definitely limited income--I don't want to get just the least expensive kilt. I looked at a number of kilts, corresponded with a bunch of X mark advisers, and decided to have my 8-yard wool clan tartan kilt made by Kathy Lare, of Albuquerque. It is hand-sewn, and it wasn't the cheapest option. But for what I paid I don't think I could possibly get better quality. It is an heirloom. A work of art. Fits me like a glove. Several locals who have hand-sewn kilts made in Scotland by reputable makers have commented that it bests their kilts in quality and price. So...if you want absolutely primo quality, I'd recommend Kathy as best value for that level of product.

And that kilt worked great all dressed up for my daughter's wedding
