They finally got the Lamont Modern tartan added to the casual kilt line-up. For a little over $200 you can get you one. I will be ordering mine shortly. They are made from 16 oz Lochcarron wool and machine sewn somewhere in Canada. I have two of their casuals ( Weathered Ulster, MacAlpine Ancient ) and they are pretty nice for the price. I have a Celtic Croft wool blend Lamont Ancient, but its not what I expected so I am jumping all over a heavyweight in the clans modern colors. I will post pics of the bute when she gets in.
heres the address link to the page the Lamont is on: http://www.burnetts-struth.com/index.php?cPath=160_149&sort=2a&page=5

What a wonderful combination, Lamont Tartan, Lochcarron fabric and Burnett & Struth tailoring, you've done well my friend !
Yes it is difficult to decide which kilt to wear. I am anxiously awaiting my Brown Modern tank from Marten Mills, it should be here in time for St Andrew's Day and the Kirk'in. I'ts great that I am going to be able to wear this one to Lamont events as well.

Check out Tartanweb.com - they have a Lochcarron heavy weight 5 yard for just over 200 bones. Not quite the price you were looking at before and it's also made in Scotland, however, I had my 9 yard Lochcarron Lamont ancient made by them and the service was quite fast the the kilt is amazing - machine made but still not bad for the price.
