Thanks Nine. Interesting. The national costume does not exist of course.

Should just call it Dutchland :hehe:
A rational skeptic should be able to discuss and debate anything, no matter how much they may personally disagree with that point of view. Discussing a subject is not agreeing with it, but understanding it.

Kilts are a very practical item of clothing. We all wear them in Scotland these days.

Were they painted? Or did they have a leather strap?

As someone who has warn a full man's kilt I can assure you it needs a very strong wind to expose anything of those parts. :lol: The weight for an 8 yard kilt is roughly 2.2kgs depending on the number of pleats. These days it can cost anything from about €600.
