    If you're looking for a great deal on a handsewn traditional, I'd highly suggest the sale page of Burnetts and Struth. The one I got from them is amazing, and only cost me $300USD. It's handsewn, 16oz wool. A beauty of a kilt.

    It mainly just depends on if they have your size in a tartan that you like.

    Cheers!

    Bubba's dead on with What Price Glory military reproductions. My waist at my naval is 46" and they had one for me....just can't afford it just yet, smoked my plastic...gotta let it cool down some.

    I did order some reporduction RAF fighter pilot gauntlet reproductions from him ($25 on sale..would guess I'd normally pay $50 up for similar gauntlets). Sent a pair to my brother who's a motor cop too. Our father was a flying sergeant with the RAF back in 1942 and he brought home a pair of originals that got lost over the years. These were just like them.

    So if he does his kilt repros as well as his gauntlets they're a good deal.

    Burnett & Struth & the RAF...

    I agree with Rufus: Burnett & Struth are top-notch when it comes to their kilts. You get what you pay for, and B & S is worth every penny. Same with Hector Russell and MacIassac in Cape Breton.

    Our father was a flying sergeant with the RAF back in 1942
    I am impressed, Ron -- what did your father fly? Spitfires, Hurricanes, Typhoons (my fav), or was he on a bomber crew? You should get a RCAF tartan kilt to honour your Dad.

    Check out this link for RAF & Kilts:
