Sadly....When i was about 15-I was given a WW1 Black Watch AND a Cameron kilt from a n older couple in my neighborhood (I was heavy into bagpiping then, and it seemed that if someone had anything Scottish that they didn't want-They'd drop by and give it to me). Anyway, These kilts were bulky and musty and I really had no use for them.....Until the day my friend and I found out that the Pogues were coming to town! We sported them and I can tell you by the end of the show, pleats were ripped, beer spilled all over them....Basically trashed (Any of you who have been to a Pogues show in the mid-80's will know why). They both went right into the trash that night.....I'm kicking myself for that to this day.....Oh yeah my point-The Cameron was bulky and had like...snap buttons on the inside as well as buttons. I was never really sure what either was for. I now think that suspenders were for the buttons, but the snap buttons (The kind with the tiny holes-not like on your jeans) I have not a clue. Both kilts had them. Thats a detail thats worth looking into for authenticity.
