Veganuary: The makers behind the vegan-friendly kilt

Based in Torry, Aberdeen, he uses cotton and polyester viscose instead of traditional materials to craft world-famous garment.

Although still a relatively new idea, Mr Wood is one of several kiltmakers developing garments free from animal by-products across Scotland as demand grows."The symmetry and the equal representation of colours in the vegan tartan indicate the importance of balance in life," according to kiltmaker Slanj

However, they have acknowledged how"tricky" it is to bring the traditional national dress into the 21st Century. This problem - along with the fact the kilt itself makes up for just one part of the traditional outfit - means there is a long way to go before Scottish national dress is accessible for everyone.

"The feedback has been more positive than negative. It really has meant a lot to people and it's massively high on the agenda for us going forward," he said.Isaac in a vegan kilt beside a traditional woollen one However, he admitted he did not know how the vegan alternative fared compared to traditional woollen garments, having never worn one.

Yep, lets replace a biodegradable material with polyester viscose! Because poisoning the oceans with micro plastic is far kinder to Animals than shearing an animal in the summer when its hot. I think some Vegans are actually just suffering from a form of OCD

Thought this material is a plastic which is petroleum based and polluting the planet. Could be wrong though. Can just see all these kilts in a few years being found in whales stomachs.

Bring on fry up February bacon, eggs black pudding sausage and any other meat i damn well want with it.

Maybe they should have a vegan only version of the highland games.

if a vegan is wearing a kilt, it's called a skirt.

Who gives a monkeys.

🥓

Haggis everywhere will be delighted

How the hell is wool a problem?

For those that don’t like meat in their trousers.

If there’s no meat in it, isn’t it properly called a skirt?
