5-yard Wilson by Balmoral from Scotweb


Yesterday evening I received an e-mail from Scotweb to say that my made to measure 5-yard kilt by Balmoral in Ancient Wilson tartan was being sent by DHL. Early this morning the DHL van arrived with my latest kilt.

The obligatory pleats shot.

Testing the kilt to see how it will swing, as I will probably keep it on for Scottish Country Dance class this evening.
This looks to be a good quality value for money kilt, and Scotweb give a 10% discount on their regular prices to x-marks members. The kilt arrived ahead of schedule and is a perfect fit.

It looks good on you with the red hose. I have 2 Wilsons, a box and knife pleat. I love them both! I even have the red hose.
Cheers, Leslie
