Great Highlandwear-A review.

FM,

Did you see this thread? http://www.xmarksthescot.com/forum/g...272/index.html

A lot of your questions answered there. In short, the company is in Pakistan (which used to be clear from their website), and I believe this is the first and only product review you will find.

Best regards,

Jake

Thanks Monkey but i have been following both threads. My point is that they have completely scoured their web site documentation of any evidence that they are located, manufacture, or ship from anywhere in particular, which I think will likely leave the impression with anybody not familiar with them from this forum that they are in Scotland or the US, not in Pakistan. If their goods are quality, it does not matter to me where they come from, as long as all is legal and ethical. But why go out of your way to HIDE your site of business, unless you have a reason, and then, what is their reason?

I think it stands to reason that they are aware of the poor reputation held by goods from Pakistan. It is therefore in their interest to conceal that fact. I am wondering about the statement that their kilts are actually made from four yards of double wide material and thus their eight yard kilt has a seam hidden in the pleats. Do other kiltmakers do this? I also find it curious that they advertise their kilts as being available in "any tartan." That seems more than a little hard to believe.

Yes, this one of the normal way of constructing a kilt, including those handmade by high end kiltmakers.
