At this rate we may have to have a Leatherneck Social Group!
Semper Fi - | I cannot even compare the fit of this kilt to anything I have.. It is so comfortable, and being a box pleat.. I like the spacing of the yellow stripes..
We should... have the Leatherneck Tartan Social Club...LOL..we already have Semper Fidelis Social Club

I hardly put my hands in my pockets.. but that goes beyond the Marines... I was raised in a military home..my Dad retired from the Air Force, after 22 years..

Very nice. This is on my list of must haves. The review has convinced me that I will be ordering a kilt from these folks. Is it my imagination, or is there a large number of Marines on this site?

There is a fair number aboard, I imagine off hand I could count in the teens, just of the ones that stand out.
