Riverkilt,
I was looking at the gallery at the Freelander sporran website and they have made green leather sporrans...

Aye, and Robert himself makes a mean grean leather sporran too. Just don't need it with the cargo pockets.

I am optimistic the kilt will arrive soon. Its already in the U.S. customs or postal service somewhere since last Thursday.

Its here!! A mere week's shipping from Canada. This is one beautiful kilt! So much more than I'd expected. Two things leap out. The sensual beauty of the leather and Robert's craftsmanship. It takes skill and experience to do this work. Don't know anyone else that can sew up a leather kilt this well, or this beautifully, and be willing to hang their name on the finished work.

And it fits perfectly. What an incredible garment this is. Was having some guilt about paying $865 U.S. for the kilt and the Ranger belt...but to look at and strap on the finished product just feel joy and some pride.

Yes, pics soon...hopefully this weekend.....

I too look forward to pictures. Love to see how that green kilt stands out with the Arizona terrain.
Cheers
