Bear, four-yard, Formal Cut kilt pics

[Alan H]

OK, as promised, here are several pictures of the four-yard, Formal Cut Bear Kilt in the muted MacNaughton tartan. Jimmy Carbomb wanted close-ups, so here ya' go, Jimmy! Note the fringed LEFT edge of the over-apron.

Those are blazing white Bear kilt/rugby hose, eh? I just wore them to annoy you all and give Hamish a headache! LOLOL! They really are nice, tho....miles ahead of the other rugby socks I bought.

This is a really old digital camera, sorry for the slightly fuzzy images.



OK, close-ups.... one side



slightly smooshed pleats....I"ve been sitting at my desk all day.



and the other side....



By the way, that's my one-dollar belt from the neighborhood garage sale...the $13 belt buckle from ebay, the $35 sporran from ebay and the $20 sporran straps bought from the leatherworker at the Yule Faire here at the University this past December.

Great tartan Alan! Bear has got to get that lead time down!!! That fringed apron is growing on me since I got to my USA Kilt with fringed bottom edge. It really gives it a nice rugged look.

Nice pictures and I am glad that you like your Bear Kilt.

Nice kilt, nice tartan, even a nice hat!! and with all the accessories the whole look comes together very nicely, even with the white hose !!;)

I love to see a kilt come up to the navel, I'm no fan of hipster kilts.

Honestly, the way that Bear finges his kilts is unlike any others!8-)

It's not just leaving the selvedge as-is, but is a straight border line with an impeccably pulled fringe line. It's MUCH better looking in person, ain't it?! That's an added look and feature that takes a LOAD of time and talent to do properly... and he's the only one that finishes the edges that way.

That fit and look is completely BearKilts. You just can't go wrong with an original design and touch! That's why I keep coming back.

Funny thing is that I'm sitting here, writing this response in my BearKilts Cape Breton tartan, Grizzly-Cut. EASILY the most comfortable kilt that I own.

By the way... THANKS for following-up and posting the pictures! It gives others a wonderful look at what's out there! You da man!!!

I've had comments about the fringe on my USA kilts, mostly from traditionalists questioning why it's done that way. frankly, I was not real happy with it at first, but it grown on me and I prefer it now.

Nice kilt Alan.

I know some do and don't like the fringe at the bottom .

Personally I love it it gives the kilt a certain something.

I haven't seen a grizzly up close as yet as I only own a classic
