    Better Red Gordon Pics



    Here are some better pics of my USA Kilts casual Red Gordon that was a special order this summer.

    I REALLY like the tartan.

    Photos were out on the Navajo Mountain overlook off Lakeshore Drive, Wahweap Bay arm of Lake Powell, Arizona.





    In fairness, I had been sitting in one of those folding cloth chairs for about two hours, then driving kilted, before taking these pics. Pleats still look great.

    Beautiful tartan!! But then again, if it's Gordon, how could it not?

    Keep posting the great photos!

    Looks great. But, it's so odd that the photos keep making the khaki portion look blue.

    Yeah, same thing on my monitor. After admiring the tartan sample, if Ron hadn't said he was wearing that tartan in the 2 pics by Lake Powell, I'd have thought he was wearing a completely different tartan. Still looks good whether it's blue or khaki...

    I see that lake is still down a ways; hope we get some good snowpack in the Rockies this winter...

    Very nice scenery and kilt. O'Neille

    Ahh, ya gotta love these monitors...

    Colors in the tartan when eyeballed directly are red, black, dark gray, and light gray. No blue...no khaki.

    If you can't see the posted pics try either of my galleries under the Gordon Red album.
