    Black Stewart Box Pleat

    Got my new Black Stewart Box Pleat from Keltoi in the mail today. I must say the condition on arrival was perfect. Remove the basting, and it was good to go without a wrinkle. The fit is perfect, at the last hole in the straps, just as I had requested. (I'm still losing weight and inches, so I wanted the max tightening I could get). The workmanship is beautiful, and it's going to be a favorite. There were a few bobbles during the jonesing period, which was a bit longer than I had expected, but John kept me informed, so no serious issue there. I highly recommend Keltoi!

    Good To Hear

    One more down so mine gets closer to the top. I heartily agree with your comments, John made my only worsted wool kilt to date and it really great, my jonesing for my second is growing. The workmanship is first rate, and John was great at communication. Enjoy, Geoff!

    That's the best-looking kilt I've seen today.

    Oh, wait...

    I'd love to see the pics! I'm planning on buying basically the same kilt off John at some point down the line.

    Pics at last, again

    I did this yesterday, but it doesn't seem to be here so---

    Here are some pictures. I've been wearing the Black Stewart Box Pleat all day. Michele and I are about to go out to dinner.







    It holds the pleats really well. /the wavyness in the back shot is me, not the kilt.

    Happy New Year.
