    Ordered a casual from USAK

    I just ordered a USAK from Rocky. Its a casual in the Buchanan, which is on my late Mothers side of the family-to honour them. Nice "muted" colors.

    I now have two kilts coming shortly. Dang it, I haven't bought myself anything for years now, it feels nice.

    Can't wait.

    That's a very nice looking tartan David. Great Autumn colors. I know you'll be pleased with your kilt coming from Rocky and Kelly.

    Congratulations!

    If you don't have one already, get yourself a Black and Decker "Gizmo" They're a hand steamer and are perfect for the PV in USA Kilts.

    You be one happy camper for sure.

    Any big box store has the Gizmo...it'll be with the irons.

    Guessing (??) that the knife pleat kilt will have more swing than the box pleat..

    USAK casuals are very comfy... should be a great everyday piece.

    Thumbs up Buchanan

    Buchanan is one of the patterns that I have on my list. The colors are really striking. You have the added advantage to wearing it for family pride.

    If this is the men's department, where are the kilts?
