    New Burnetts & Struth Malcolm Modern

    A few weeks back I posted about Burnett's & Struth's Spring sale they had on their website.

    I ordered a Malcolm Modern 4 yarder from the tartans they had on sale. Malcolm is one of the family tartans I've been watching for as it's my father's mother's clan.

    This is my first wool kilt (the others being PV or acrylic), and as luck would have it the sale was 16 oz Locharron Strome. SWEET fabric.

    Man, I'd join the Malcolms for a great kilt like that.

    Thanks for the pix.

    Hey, why not? For casual kilt wearing they look just fine and are comfortable.
