Now that we have safely navigated the parties of holiday season into 2010 Heartland Heritagewear wishes you all the very best for this coming year. For our part we have some interesting things lined up for 2010 and we will continue in our tradition of proudly and timelessly encouraging pride and enthusiasm in our area through our products.
With the fun of the New Year barely over Donato and Philip found themselves invited to another great night out, this time for Burns Night. Of course this was the perfect occasion to break out the Black Country kilt which Philip wore with great pride, pairing it with a Sheriffmuir jacket, lace jabot and white dress sporran topped with an elegant plain cantle.
Heartland Heritagewear was extremely pleased to be able to contribute a Black Country tartan tie and scarf for the charity auction at the end of the night which over all helped raise over £1000 for multiple sclerosis.
The night was organised by the Midland based kiltwear specialist VanKilter and also had many of the great and good from the Solihull area. We can happily show you this link to the Halesowen News coverage of the story with Philip meeting the Mayor of Solihull, who was very interested in the sentiment and meaning behind the design: http://www.halesowennews.co.uk/news/4875237.Philip_shows_off_his_tartan_at_Burns_Night_event/
In honour of this great night we will publish on the Heartland Heritagewear site an idea for a social symbol for the Black Country inspired by Burns Night! Keep your eyes peeled for over the next few days – Slàinte!
