This website really looks like a scam website to me, but if I trust the comments on https://de-reviews.com/shopwiwi/ , it is just a bad online retailer.

The same pics are on Temu and listed as kilts. If ya look they are backwards, pleats in front, double straps on the left, apron in back. Been a lurker for a long time and never posted, but couldn't let this post slide without commenting. I'm not so much into skirts except around the house but really like my kilts, tartan and utility. Haven't worn pants to church for over 3 years.

Welcome KF. I've seen the same guy on Aliexpress. If anyone were to buy from them, it will probably be cheap. Take a long time to arrive and no comeback if there's something wrong.

Cheap and nasty, but disposable.
My son calls them "drinking" kilts, it doesn't matter what ends up all over them, they burn very easily.

This looks like the cheap stuff sold on sites like Alibaba, Temu etc.
Sizing is probably Asian sizing as well, and looking at it, I'd say it's probably aimed at the cosplay/party costume etc market, and wouldn't be of sufficient quality to be worn as an every day garment.

Questions answered. Pretty much what I expected.
