If you want a very economical MacBean casual kilt, look no further than Burnett's and Struth who advertise here as they sell a MacBean Ancient 5 yard casual for an exceptional price. They also make full-length kilts, but their special sale casuals in select tartans have been mentioned here many times. Although nearly everyone recommends the better quality kilts, and although I have ordered a hand-made MacBean Modern from Barbara, I don't think I or my son will stop wearing that first casual B&S MacBean Ancient. It's lighter, and that matters to me too.

As for jackets, I've done exceptionally well watching eBay for used vintage jackets which seem to appear mostly in rather small sizes.
