    Thanks Phil

    Thanks for the pics and the ideas. Being not particularly tall and stocky I need all the ideas that I can get. Its great to see men with a collection of kilts.

    Hi Xcop,

    If it's a collection of kilts you want to see, take a look at my Photo Album (link below). There you'll see photos of most of my 36 kilts - soon to be 38 - although I still have to post images of the latest three to arrive!

    That is one boss kilt, Phil. I've seen Roberts work up close and can vouch for the quality of his workmanship. He is a true craftsman.

    Phil,

    You look, well how do I say it, GREAT!!!!! To take what Graham said one step further, I can tell where Brad Pitt got his inspiration.

    They weigh between 2.5kg- 3kg. depending on your size. The kilts are made from 2.5-3.0 oz leather. The green is the heaviest. The kilt on average uses 5 meters of leather. It rests on the hips so you don't notice the weight much.
    Cheers

    Yo Phil,

    Now that you've had the kilt for a while, how's it holding-up?

    How are the pleats laying with time and cleaning?

    Hows the leather itself doing in the pleats and condition?

    PLEASE (like I need to ask) be brutally honest with the responses!
