Now what is the similarity between a Beret and a Kilt .... well if you see a man in Scotland wearing a kilt ... he is almost certainly not a Scot ..... like wise in france .. the Beret is associated with the War and defeat. It is still worn in its area of origin ... the Basque area around biarritz and south .... but here it is RED !!!!

So there you are ... but we love 'em
