Ouch! From what I remember when I got my kilt, 700£ is really really pricey. I know that North-America is probably on the wrong side of the world for most of the people interested in ordering, but I recommend Burnett & Struth's[0] as a kilt maker. They're located just north of Toronto, Canada. They made my personal kilt (combination of machine and hand sewing) out of a very uncommon tartan (I think it had to be custom woven since nobody kept it in stock) for about 650–700 CAD (~410–440£), tax included. The fabric was heavy weight (16oz I think) at that. On a side note, they also made my band kilt, which is 25 years old and still looks great apart from wear on the leather buckle straps (easily worn 10-15 times a year).
